Yes. If you have a disability that makes it hard to read, see, hear, or understand material, the university can change it into a format that works for you.

For example, they can:

  • Turn text into audio
  • Add captions to videos
  • Make text larger or screen-reader friendly

They can share this with you online (e.g., via email), and you can use it for study or personal use.

The only limits are:

  • The material should only be shared with students who need it
  • The university may check if an accessible version already exists before making one

You have access to Read & Write via your student/staff portal. Read & Write is a browser addon with features like text-to-speech and voice dictation (voice-to-text).

Email the library with any questions that you may have about a specific resource format. Please contact Access and Inclusion for further support if you have a disability, medical or mental condition (permanent or temporary) to assist you with your studies to ensure equal access and participation in uni life.
