[nabs-l] Question about Readers

[Ashley Bramlett]

Emma,

Most schools do not provide readers and scribes for outside work which is 
what Vejas needs.
Does your school provide the readers just for tests and in class 
assignments?
If they provide readers to access other reading such as homework textbook 
assignments or library research, how many hours do they give you for this 
out of class time?
Wow, if they provide readers like this, I might consider that one for grad 
school.  I've always had to hire my own readers.

Hi,
I use readers and scribes all the time. I would set up a meeting with your 
disability office to discuss what is needed and get the service in place.
