[nabs-l] Pearson is unaccessible

[Karl Martin Adam]

Right, that's an accessability issue.  My point is that copyright 
doesn't prevent your DSS office from working with you to make it 
accessable.

But I have purchased the code, the book is mine. They gave it to 
me
and I've enrolled, but I just can't get the book to read. It 
keeps
saying embedded object unavaillable.

 Kayla, copyright doesn't apply to making it accessible to a 
blind
 person as long as you have actually purchased the book and 
access
 to the lab.

 I tried asking and since the publisher has a copyright thing, no
 one
 can copy and paste. I don't know what the problem is. I've been
 trying
 to figure this out since yesterday.

   I would recommend using book share as a last resort, because
 that process
  takes time. Can you somehow get access for your disability
 services office
  so that they can create alternative format files from the 
online
 book? This
  should be a simple as selecting, copying, and pasting for them.
 If you have
  exams or activities to complete on the site hiring a reader or
 scribe would
  do the trick, or they could adapt the activities into 
accessible
 files
  which you can turn in to your prof to grade manually.

  You guys, help! My Intro to Business textbook is unaccessible
 the
  MyBizLab. Does anyone know how to somehow get this fixed or to
 find
  another alternative? Even the people at Pearson Tech support
 didn't
  know what to do.
