[blindlaw] Success Obtaining Ebooks from Westlaw With Agency Receipts

[Tai Tomasi]

Following up on a discussion we had last week on this list, I wanted to let you all know that I was successful in obtaining the books I sought even with a 2013 receipt from my employer. I found it frustrating that blind attorneys would essentially be paying an accessibility tax, when any other employee could benefit from the materials their employers had on hand. I'm goad to know that Thomson Reuters will provide accessible copies in this situation,  at least for the time being. Below, I have pasted a helpful contact there. He urges users to copy the accessibility address listed below in case he is out of the office.
