Hi,
Could anyone offer me some advice on the use of scanners in the library
for disabled users. I know the recent copyright legislation allows
visually impaired students to use a scanner in the library but what
about other students such as dyslexic students and students with
physical impairments that need to use a scanner with text read & write
software. How are other Higher Education Libraries getting around the
copyright restrictions? Can it be argued that the DDA part 4 states we
need to make reasonable adjustments and therefore all disabled students
should have access to a scanner.
Thanks for your help
Jane
