[nabs-l] Braille Transcriber

[Karl Martin Adam]

It's the school's responsibility to provide your tests in an 
accessible format.  That means it's their job to provide the 
tests in Braille if you have that as an accommodation, though 
they'll probably want you to work with a reader instead since 
your instructor won't be able to read your answers in Braille.  
You probably won't be able to choose who does the transcribing, 
if they provide that as an accommodation, though if they don't 
have a regular transcriber they would probably appreciate you 
suggesting someone.

Subject: [nabs-l] Braille Transcriber

Hi All,
I was wondering about the policy regarding Braille transcribers
in a college setting.
I have had most of my material given to me electronically, but
next semester I will take math and will need Brailled tests.
I have a Braille transcriber in mind whom I know and I feel would
do the job well.  I understand that she will have to be paid.
I am guessing that it is mine, as opposed to the school's,
responsibility to pay for her?
Would the Department of Rehab cover it?
Thanks,
Vejas
