[nabs-l] CourseSmart

[Ashley Bramlett]

I thought blio had novels and non textbooks.
Miranda, I can sure identify with the struggle to find books in accessible 
format. Learning ally was my first choice; but as you point out, not 
everything is there.
I assume course smart is a ebook solution. I'm not sure the answer to the 
question, but many ebook solutions are images of a book. If this is an 
image, its not accessible.
You could also just buy the book from the bookstore and look for a reader. I 
always used a reader for something in school. They can skim and look up info 
faster than I can by listening or searching through a scanned copy.
I hope you asked your college to get them from the publisher. If you have a 
receit for your books, your disability student office, DSO, will often 
provide them in electronic format from the publisher.

You're having problems getting texts from them as well?
I wonder if you can get them as EBooks, on the Blio.
Blessings, Joshua
