Disability Blog: Letter from Department of Justice & Department of Education

On June 29, 2010, the Department of Justice and Department of Education wrote a letter to College University Presidents on the subject of Electronic Book Readers.  They expressed concern towards the growing trend for colleges and universities to use readers that are inaccessible to students who are blind or who have low vision.  They seek to protect disabled persons from discrimination and to ensure they are able to receive equal opportunities in education.
