[blindLaw] accommodation question looking for a reputable, legal citation source:

[Lauren Bishop]

Good Morning, 
The short answer is that a reader and or scribe is a reasonable accommodation. With that said, whether someone can perform these services virtually is going to depend on the situation. For example, if you have to pass a background check to access information in a work place, you are likely going to have to have someone assist in person   if you could provide some more context for your needs, I think people will have an easier time helping you.
