UC Berkeley Alternate Media Settlement
Synopsis
Disability Rights Advocates (DRA) represented 3 students with
print disabilities regarding barriers to alternate media.
The parties used a ‘structured negotiation process’ (vs. lawsuit)
that took more than a year to complete.
Focused primarily on timely access to materials as well as library
accessibility (print books/journals and catalog software)
Outcomes
Implement shorter alternate media delivery timelines
Textbooks: 10 business days
Course readers: 17 business days
Portions of critical materials: shorter (not specified in fact sheet)
Delivery of timely requests 3 days prior to start of class
UC Berkeley Alternate Media Settlement (cont)
Outcomes (cont)
Deliver ‘recommended’ materials in accessible formats
Provide ‘interim services’ (e.g. personal reader, deadline extension)
Improve library accessibility capacity/procedures
Remediate online library catalog software for screen reader access
New library print conversion system to convert within 5 business days
Implement scanning machines to allow self-service by students
Provide assistance with scanning for those with physical disabilities
Discussion
Likely precedent-setting for future OCR investigations/lawsuits
The timelines are challenging when applied to all requests
Alt media capacity requires investments to meet growing demands
Print disability issues extend beyond blindness
