Accessible Literature

Not everyone has perfect vision. In fact many people in our society have difficulty reading some printed material. To ensure that everyone has the opportunity to participate in their community, the North Shore Advisory Committee on Disability Issues encourages organizations to make their publicly available material   available in alternate formats. Brochures, newsletters, annual reports and notices should be provided in user friendly formats.

Requests for materials in alternate formats should be treated as routine.

If a printed document is available to the public at no cost, there should be no cost for providing it in an alternate format.
