<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Open Sans",sans-serif">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Open Sans",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Open Sans",sans-serif">In a world where publishers make their works available in universally accessible formats, we could all close up shop and let the market work. I don’t think anyone would see
that as a bad outcome. That’s not where we are right now, though, so we must balance the goals of copyright (to incentivize creativity by giving authors and publishers an opportunity to monetize their work) with the goals of civil rights (to provide equal
dignity and opportunity to all). <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Open Sans",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Open Sans",sans-serif">Forcing students who need accessible formats to jump through hoops and get special dispensation in order to access learning materials and participate equally in university
courses is already unjust and wasteful (IMHO). Forcing them to buy inaccessible copies, too, undermines the copyright system because it removes the incentive for copyright holders to make their works available equally to all.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Open Sans",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Open Sans",sans-serif">If we require purchase of useless, inaccessible copies before we provide students with copies in formats they can read, there’s no reason for publishers to enter the market
and provide accessible copies by default. They can keep on providing a broken, discriminatory product to the mass market and forcing folks with disabilities to seek special dispensation to get a special copy that (maybe) works for them. But if publishers lose
revenue when they refuse to serve folks with print disabilities, they will have at least some market incentive to change their practice.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Open Sans",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Open Sans",sans-serif">Imagine if publishers decided to publish books with DRM that somehow prevented left-handed people from reading them – books for Rights only. Then congress passes a copyright
law saying that Lefties who want to read these books can get a free Left-accessible copy from a library or university if they provide a doctor’s note certifying they are Lefties. Would you feel it was somehow unjust to the publisher to provide that free copy?
And if you required Lefties to buy a Rights-only copy before you’d provide them with a free copy, do you think publishers (who apparently are not interested in making books that are Right-accessible) would ever change their behavior? It seems to me that forcing
the Lefties to buy copies enables the publishers’ discrimination by ensuring they pay no market penalty for doing so. I have a hard time seeing how disability presents a different moral calculus.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

While the occasional student may be using a library copy, the vast majority are not. Many of the required textbooks are only available on reserve from the library, they can’t even check them out for the semester. So, every student, including SWDs, are expected
to have some format of the book. This is not discriminatory against SWDs, or any student.

of the book. Most publishers are generously providing files to us and not requiring us to provide them with direct proof (exception: Law book publishers). They trust that we are doing the right thing, and I don’t want to break that trust with them. Without
publishers participating in the process, we will be back to the dark ages – having to scan every single book we need. Let’s act with integrity, here, IMHO</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></li></ol>
