 If you need library books in accessible electronic formats, there are three options. Finding electronic books, requesting chapter scans, and requesting whole book scans. First, the book may already be in electronic format in the OmniLibrary catalog. To limit to electronic, choose available online from the search filters after you've done your search. If you run into problems with download limits, we can download and compile files for you so they work with your screen reader. Second, sometimes a book is only available in print. If you only need a chapter, you can request it in Omni and the library will scan it for you and do basic OCR on the PDF. To request a chapter, sign into Omni, then click on a print book title to see its full record. Under Get it, select the option called Scan Section. Fill in the chapter information. You'll get an email with the PDF in a couple of days. Finally, if an ebook format doesn't work for you or you need a whole print book, you can request an electronic version. It doesn't matter if the Laurier Library owns the book or not. The library uses the AIDS Service, a partnership between Ontario University Libraries. Laurier books are scanned by ACE in Toronto. To use ACE, you need an ACE token. If you're registered with the ALC or Human Resources, you can get a token from those offices. If you have a print disability but aren't registered, you can get a token from the library. ACE requests take a while, so first check to see if a book has already been scanned by ACE. Search the ACE site at ACE.scholarsportal.info. Click on the Access ACE content button. Then log in using your ACE token. Search for your book by title in the main search box. Some books here have been digitized by ACE and are available in PDF as well as other formats, which vary but might include Word or text files, EPUB or DAISY. The books that don't say ACE are available in PDF only. Select the title to see the available versions and download them. If you don't find the book you need on the ACE site, you can make an alternate format request to have it digitized. You can do this in Omni using the request alternate format for print disabled users link underneath the title of the item. Or you can go to the library's main webpage and type alternate format form in the upper search box to find the alternate format request form. Fill in the form and submit your request. If we can find an already digitized version or we own the print book locally, we can get it to you in a few days. If it needs to be scanned by ACE, it usually takes one to two weeks. We'll email you when your book is ready. Most of our alternate format services provide PDF files with basic OCR. If you need other formats or additional accessibility features, we also have text remediation services. One of our services is Census Access. It's a self-service online tool you can use to convert files to different formats, for example PDF to Word or MP3, or add accessibility such as tagged PDF. Upload your file and get results emailed to your Laurier address in a few minutes. To find Census Access, search for it in the upper search box on any library webpage. The other services are in-house remediation. We can convert to different formats, clean up files, and add accessibility features like headings and lists for navigation. To request these services use the alternate format request form mentioned earlier, or email us. For more details about any of our accessibility services, check out the Accessibility Hub on the library website. On any webpage, choose the services menu then Accessibility Hub.
