Copyright and accessibility

All people with disabilities are now covered by the law when their impairment affects their abilities to study or work on an equal basis as someone without impairment.

All copyright work can now be altered to an appropriate format.

This may include:

  • making Braille, audio or large-print copies of books, newspapers or magazines for visually impaired people
  • making subtitled films or broadcasts for deaf or hard of hearing people
  • adding audio description to films or broadcasts for visually impaired people
  • making accessible copies of books, newspapers or magazines for dyslexic people
