Hello,
Have you heard of the Learning Ally Library? Perhaps RFB&D? Learning Ally is
the new name for RFB&D. It is a nonprofit organization that provides audio
textbooks to the blind. Students used to receive free membership to RFB&D,
and I was grandfathered into the system so the same rules apply to me, but
I'm not sure what individual memberships cost. They do have audio books on
Linear Algebra.
Hope this helps,
Zac

Subject: [Blindmath] Accessible Materials - from Nube obviously
Hi: I am still slogging through some math websites and considering where to
buy or rent books from.
There is mathML, laTex and I just ran upon a site that loaded something
called MathJacks type which I think has to do with accessibility - havent
done much with these 3 yet.
I see a posting where a member is looking for a book to buy or borrow - is
this legal with e-books, if so are there folks out here who might have a
linear algebra book they found particularly accessible and understandable?
This can be an audio book or another format as mentioned above.
I am almost 70 years old and wont likely be learning braille which I know
would likely be the best bet but it is what it is so either audio or screen
reader accessible sites and books are what I am hoping to find.
Also, If you know of specific authors, Readers or Titles and sources could
you post up?
