| GA | Signed into law 05/2002 | P-12
Postsec. | States that colleges and universities in this state have made diligent efforts to accommodate the needs of students with disabilities requiring alternative formats for textbooks and other printed instructional materials used in postsecondary courses of study, but that colleges and universities are confronted with many practical problems in obtaining or producing these texts in alternative formats. Practical problems in obtaining these texts in alternative formats include the wide variety of texts used in postsecondary courses of study, a lack of bargaining power with publishers of postsecondary textbooks in comparison with publishers of textbooks for elementary and secondary education, and hesitation among postsecondary institutions to share alternative formats because of concern about copyright law. Practical problems in producing such materials in alternative formats include the labor intensive and technical nature of the work, the frequent need for expertise in the subject matter of the texts, and the expense and time required for production. The General Assembly further finds that students with disabilities, colleges, universities, and publishers would benefit from cooperative development of a system for sharing those texts produced in alternative formats while adequately protecting the intellectual property rights of publishers. Amend code relating respectively to postsecondary education and vocational, technical, and adult education, so as to provide that each publisher of a textbook shall provide an electronic format of such textbook. http://www.legis.state.ga.us/Legis/2001_02/fulltext/hb1342.htm
