The latest edition of the Accessibility Action Group newsletter is well worth a read and shows how much is going on in the field of accessible formats. For example:
- new guidelines for publishers in how they should respond to requests for permission to adapt books or for digital versions of books;
- an update on the DCSF Accessible Textbook project in England;
- an update on the Right to Read Alliance eBook working group's efforts to encourage accessible eBooks;
- news that Adobe plans to improve the accessibility of it's less-than-accessible Adobe Digital Editions software;
- the Publisher Lookup Awards for publishers who have been particularly helpful to print-disabled readers;
- new Pearson HTMLbooks - digital versions of (North American) textbooks for the same price as print copies - this is what we want from all publishers
