The text of the proposed treaty is one that was proposed by the World 
Blind Union (WBU) at last November's SCCR meeting. The proposed treaty is 
intended to facilitate and enhance access to protected works for the 
blind, visually impaired, and other reading-disabled persons.

The proposed treaty is historic in WIPO, as it proposes carving out 
minimum E&L in the interest of the public, as opposed to giving more 
rights to the right-holders, which is usually the subject of discussion at 
the SCCR.

The issue of E&L gained momentum following a proposal by Brazil, Chile, 
Nicaragua and Uruguay at the sixteenth SCCR meeting (in July 2008) that 
the SCCR be committed to creating mandatory minimum E&L through means it 
deems appropriate. The sixteenth session of the SCCR was the first meeting 
to formally include the E&L on the Committee's agenda.

In a note attached to their proposal, the proponents of the treaty state 
that by undertaking such an initiative, "WIPO would act in accordance with 
the efforts undertaken by the UN to address the need for enhancing access 
to knowledge for the most vulnerable or socially prioritized sectors".

"Establishment of formal negotiations on limitations and exceptions would 
contribute to the broader aims of the Development Agenda, particularly the 
ones related to norm-setting," the note further adds.

Generally, the proposed treaty received strong support from developing 
countries and public interest groups. Some countries proposed launching 
negotiations on the basis of the proposed treaty.

The African Group sought an even more ambitious action on E&L, suggesting 
a broader treaty framework that would reflect the Development Agenda and 
include elements such as access to knowledge in the areas of education, 
research and transfer of technologies.

In introducing the proposed treaty on Wednesday, Brazil said that its 
proposal was an example of norm-setting for E&L for copyright for persons 
with disabilities, libraries and archives, educational activities and to 
foster technological innovations. It also said that the "text was not set 
in stone", adding that there was "consensus in the field of values" and 
"what we need now is the political will and a pragmatic spirit".

Ecuador, another proponent of the proposed treaty, said that the proposal 
was aligned with the objectives in the UN Convention on the Rights of 
Persons with Disabilities - i. e. "to promote, protect and ensure the full 
and equal enjoyment of all human rights and fundamental freedoms by all 
persons with disabilities, and to promote respect for their inherent 
dignity".

It added that the success of the IP system relies on the balance between 
public and private interest and that the best way to broker the balance 
was to develop E&L.

It also said that there were 37 million blind people and 124 million 
people with low vision worldwide. 90 % of the visually impaired persons 
(VIP) live in developing countries, it added.

Paraguay said that it was convinced of the need to expand the proposed 
treaty to other groups with special needs. "We want to see a strong debate 
on this subject," it added.

Developing countries showed broad support for discussions on mandatory 
international instruments on minimum exceptions and limitations (E&L) to 
copyright, including the proposed treaty in the SCCR.

Copyright treaty backing e-books for disabled readers survives US and EU 
resistance
OUT-LAW News 
03/06/2009
<http://www.out-law.com/page-10059>


A proposed treaty that would change copyright laws to allow the supply of 
books across borders for the benefit of blind people has survived 
resistance from the US, UK, France, Germany and other countries.

A committee of the World Intellectual Property Organisation agreed on 
Friday "to continue without delay" its work on "facilitating the access of 
blind, visually-impaired and other reading-disabled persons to 
copyright-protected works."

At the heart of this work is a treaty proposed by the charitable 
organisation World Blind Union (WBU) and written with the help of the UK's 
Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) .

RNIB campaign manager Dan Pescod attended the five-day meeting in Geneva. 
Pescod told OUT-LAW today that the UK and the US were among a group of 
countries that did not support the treaty and preferred 'soft options', 
though they stopped short of formally opposing it.

Around 95% of books are never published in any format other than standard 
print, according to the WBU. But visually impaired people need books in 
other formats, such as large print, Braille and audio. People with other 
disabilities, such as cognitive impairments, can also find themselves 
'print disabled'.

"Imagine if you walked into a bookshop or library, and were told that you 
were only allowed to choose from five percent of the books on the shelf," 
said WBU president  Dr William Rowland in a speech last year. "What would 
such a limited choice do to your education, to your leisure reading 
opportunities?"

The WBU, RNIB and others have prepared a draft treaty that would relax 
copyright restrictions to allow the creation and supply of accessible 
books without the need for prior permission from the copyright owner. The 
treaty requires this generally to be done on a non-profit basis.

In some countries, it is already legal to create accessible books without 
permission. It was made legal in the UK by the Copyright (Visually 
Impaired Persons) Act, passed in 2002. But that law is limited in scope. 
The rights are limited to visually-impaired persons  so while a person 
with dyslexia might benefit from a large-print book, or an electronic book 
which can be played using text-to-speech conversion software, the law does 
not facilitate that person.

Also, the UK law, like equivalent laws in other countries, does not allow 
the supply of a digital book to a customer overseas.

The WBU treaty, if signed and ratified in its present form, would lift 
these restrictions. It seeks to protect all 'reading disabled' persons and 
it allows the supply across borders of accessible works, as a Braille hard 
copy or as an e-book. At present, a tiny fraction of books that are 
available in accessible formats can be supplied across borders because 
their export requires the agreement of rights holders.




Copyright and Print Disability : Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Australia.  Australian Human Rights Commission
<http://www.hreoc.gov.au/disability_rights/education/copyfaq.htm>


1. Introduction
This list of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) has been compiled by a 
committee established by the Australian Human Rights Commission (the 
Commission) that included representatives from government, the publishing 
industry, and copyright administrators.

The purpose of the FAQ is to assemble basic information about how the 
copyright legislative and administrative regime affects producers and 
users of accessible-format material (audio, Braille, e-text and 
large-print) in Australia. It is important to stress that, in some cases, 
definitive answers are not possible, mainly because of rapidly-changing 
technologies. Copyright regimes attempt to balance the rights of authors 
against the rights of end-users. In the case of end-users who have a print 
disability, there is the added responsibility to ensure that the aims and 
objects of the Disability Discrimination act (DDA) are promoted as far as 
possible.



The information contained in this FAQ will be of interest to:


People who have a print disability
Organisations that produce accessible-format materials for use by people 
with a print disability;


Educational institutions whose client group (potentially) includes people 
with a print disability.


Although every attempt has been made to ensure that the information 
provided below is accurate and useful, it should not be seen as a 
substitute for legal or other professional advice, and we recommend that 
you seek specialist advice if you want professional assurance that the 
following information, and your interpretation of it, is appropriate to 
your particular circumstances.

Guidelines for Assisting People with Disabilities
The University of Melbourne
Australia
<http://www.unimelb.edu.au/copyright/information/fastfind/disable.html>


There are a number of provisions in the Copyright Act that will allow 
material to be reproduced in accessible formats to assist people with 
disabilities. The intended purpose and audience will determine which 
provision will apply. In most circumstances, the situation will need to be 
judged on a case-by-case basis. These guidelines, which outline the 
various provisions and how they can be used to assist people with 
disabilities, may assist. For further advice please contact the Copyright

Copyright - Are people with sensory-disabilities getting a fair deal?
Denise Rosemary Nicholson,
University of Witwatersrand
<http://pcf4.dec.uwi.edu/viewpaper.php?id=379&print=1>


Abstract

Copyright has become a barrier to accessing information, particularly in 
developing countries. Many developing countries have signed international 
intellectual property agreements, which set down minimum standards for 
copyright protection. For various socio-economic and political reasons, 
most, if not all of them, have not yet incorporated all these requirements 
into their national copyright laws. Nor have they taken advantage of the 
legal limitations and exceptions allowed in these international 
agreements. This means that developing countries do not have provisions 
for persons with visual, aural or perceptual disabilities in their 
national copyright laws. As a result, copyright laws restrict or block 
access to information for persons with sensory disabilities and often 
override their fair use rights. Many of these people are distance learners 
because of their disabilities. This presentation will show, from a South 
African perspective, that copyright laws do not address people with 
sensory-disabilities or distance learners. It will give some practical 
examples where people with sensory-disabilities are not getting a fair 
deal at all!

Digital copyright and disability discrimination: From braille books to 
bookshare

In Australia, blind people are able to access texts in braille and books 
on tape, but the demand for these media is decreasing. Blind people today 
are increasingly reliant on texts in electronic form, and these are much 
less readily available in Australia. Electronic texts are more portable 
and less cumbersome than large braille volumes, and are much faster to 
navigate than audio recordings. However, in Australia it is difficult for 
blind people to get access to a wide range of electronic texts and there 
exists no scheme enabling such access. At the same time sighted people are 
using electronic text and other digital media at an ever-increasing rate. 
In order to approximate the same level of access as sighted people, blind 
people require access to accessible electronic versions of all published 
material. The authors suggest that given the legal imperatives of 
Australias domestic legislation, treaty obligations and social values, 
that there exists a moral imperative to create a scheme providing blind 
people with access to digital print media.

Abstract: The Library of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind 
(CNIB), a leader in library service development for people blind and print 
disabled, has embarked on two innovative plans to acquire digital content 
from publishers, in order to facilitate alternate format production of 
braille, e-text and audio materials. CNIB Library has contracted for 
licensed access to the files of five Canadian publishers. The Library is 
also participating in a nationwide pilot project to establish a 
clearinghouse, to make publishers files available to alternate format 
producers. These two creative solutions have a potential to be used as a 
model for resource sharing among libraries for the blind worldwide.

Amending Copyright Act for print-disabled to access books
By L Subramani
For centuries, lack of access to books and printed materials remained a 
great stumbling block for persons with disability to intellectually 
advance themselves.

Even as the education system across the world started to welcome persons 
with disability into its folds, many of them had to depend on their 
able-bodied peers or volunteers to read their books.

Though this has affected the visually challenged in general, they at least 
had the Braille code to access books, which was denied to those with other 
forms of disability such as cerebral palsy and dyslexia, who need 
specialised content to understand printed material.

With the development of technology, it became possible to create such 
alternative content electronically. This brought the question of 
copyrights  if letting the print-disabled (as all persons whose disability 
prevented them from accessing printed materials were came to be known) 
read books in electronic format would be construed as infringement.

Amidst these changes, the government decided in 2006 to amend the Indian 
Copyright Act recognising the rights of persons with disability to access 
copyrighted content in special format.

Organisations later negotiated with the government to ensure the wording 
of the amendment  52(1)(za), which is being proposed with several other 
amendments to the Act  to properly reflect the requirements of the 
print-disabled community.
Meanwhile, there has been apprehension amongst the publishing industry 
that loosening of the fair use clause in the Act may pave the way for more 
piracy. Publishers like Cambridge University Press (CUP), who  recently 
entered into an agreement with DAISY Forum of India (DFI) in letting their 
content be provided for the print-disabled in DAISY format, favour such 
private agreements to solve accessibility issue.

We are doing our best wherever it is feasible to offer help to the 
print-disabled, said Manav Saikia, managing director, CUP, answering 
queries from Deccan Herald through email. The agreement that we have 
signed with the DFI is a model developed specially for this purpose.

The Disabled Are On Google's Side In Books Settlement

Advocates for the disabled have asked a federal court to approve a 
controversial settlement of a lawsuit filed by book authors and publishers 
against Google.

"The settlement's benefits for readers with disabilities are 
extraordinary," the American Association of People with Disabilities said 
in a letter filed last week with the court.

"People for whom transportation to a library or bookstore is difficult, 
unavailable or expensive would have access to these books through their 
computer," the organization wrote in a letter to U.S. District Court Judge 
Denny Chin in Manhattan. "People with vision loss will be able to search 
for books through the Google Books interface and purchase, borrow, or read 
at a public library any of the books that are available to the general 
public in accessible formats."

The pact calls for Google to fund a new book rights registry and allows it 
to digitize books and sell downloads at prices it sets with the registry. 
If it goes through, the deal would settle a 4-year-old copyright 
infringement lawsuit filed against Google by authors and publishers.

There was a time, not that long ago, when children who were blind, or had 
another kind of disability that prevented them from easily reading a 
printed book, were pretty much out of luck when it came to reading.

If a child with a print disability wanted to read a school textbook, or 
even a best-seller about their favorite sports star, he or she would hope 
that the book was among the 5% of books recorded on audiotape or published 
in Braille. If the child was lucky, they might have a family member who 
was willing to read to them out loud.

When inexpensive scanners became available in the mid-1990s, things began 
to change. People started scanning books using optical character 
recognition. This allowed people to transform text into speech using a 
voice synthesizer, enlarge the text for someone with low vision, or 
convert it into printed or electronic Braille.

OCR was a big step forward, but it takes three hours to scan a book. 
Imagine standing at the library photocopier making copies of all the pages 
of a book that you want to read. That's a big barrier to reading.

Many of us know families who have kids with severe print disabilities, 
especially dyslexia. We see the struggles these families face, helping 
their child who may have plenty of brains, but struggles hard to read. How 
can we help these students get an equal crack at opportunity?

School is a big enough challenge without a disability like blindness or 
dyslexia getting in the way. It's pretty obvious that if you can't succeed 
in school because you can't read your textbooks, you are going to have 
tough time succeeding in the workplace and navigating the information 
economy.

Description


The future of disability in America will depend on how well the U.S. 
prepares for and manages the demographic, fiscal, and technological 
developments that will unfold during the next two to three decades.


Building upon two prior studies from the Institute of Medicine (the 1991 
Institute of Medicine's report Disability in America and the 1997 report 
Enabling America), The Future of Disability in America examines both 
progress and concerns about continuing barriers that limit the 
independence, productivity, and participation in community life of people 
with disabilities. This book offers a comprehensive look at a wide range 
of issues, including the prevalence of disability across the lifespan; 
disability trends the role of assistive technology; barriers posed by 
health care and other facilities with inaccessible buildings, equipment, 
and information formats; the needs of young people moving from pediatric 
to adult health care and of adults experiencing premature aging and 
secondary health problems; selected issues in health care financing (e.g., 
risk adjusting payments to health plans, coverage of assistive 
technology); and the organizing and financing of disability-related 
research.

The Future of Disability in America is an assessment of both principles 
and scientific evidence for disability policies and services. This book's 
recommendations propose steps to eliminate barriers and strengthen the 
evidence base for future public and private actions to reduce the impact 
of disability on individuals, families, and society.
