It really depends on the combination of E-reader and the type of 
file
used; bear in mind that notetakers are also regarded as 
E-readers,
too.

It is true that there are some E-readers that aren't accessible.
However, there are a few other options.  I've heard good things 
about
the kindle app, and I have poked around Blio on my tablet with
success.  E-reader is a very broad term.

 Hi,
 Yes, to some extent.  Some ereaders are also tablets and are 
accessible.  For

 instance you can use an ipad or ipot touch as an ereader; I do 
not have one,

 but I know its accessible.  You can read I books with voice 
over.  Also, the
 Kindle fire HD has just come out with the android screen reader 
which I
 believe is called talk back.

 Several ereaders are not accessible yet; these include the sony 
reader and
 nook.  Also, sometimes the ebook publishers will make it in a 
format you
 cannot read, even if your device is accessible.  For instance, I 
do not think

 adobe digital editions is accessible yet.

 Hi,
 Are E Readers accessible? I am not going to this school, but one 
school said

 they had Ereaders that I could use if I attended the school.  I 
am just
 curious.
