I always download the BRF copies from Bookshare... Pretty much anything digital
will do though.

Maybe I missed it, but, what format are you looking for?

No. I cannot use audio recordings for textbooks. My ability to focus is
severely lacking there. I have tried before.

I'm assuming you've tired recording for the blind or learning ally as they call
it now.

Kelly, I am honestly avoiding disability services at this school. From past
experience, they are not worth anything. They didn't help me with a book last
semester, and they kept putting stuff back on the professor. I know they are
supposed to, but for whatever reason, nothing happens when I contact them. It's
a far cry from the last place I attended.

Alyssa,
also consider demanding that your school provide these books to you in an
accessible format as it is required to do by law.

No, I do not have print copies. I'm going to submit them through the
request form to see where that gets me in case they are available
electronically through one of Bookshare's sources. Unfortunately, I
don't have time to proof anything right now, or else I'd do that.
Thanks!

When would you need these? Do you have print copies of them or not?
Are you just wanting someone to scan them only? Thanks.
