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.

Subject: Re: [nabs-l] Pearson is unaccessible

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.
