Access+Text+Network

“The AccessText Network helps college students with print disabilities by connecting their disability service offices directly with leading textbook publishers to obtain electronic files. These files are used to create accessible versions of the textbooks.” Due to copyright laws, students cannot directly purchase their books from AccessText Network, however, if you find your book on this site, you can let us know and we will order it after you bring in your receipt.
