time frame if additional resources were
available?
B. Experiences of Persons Within the
United States With Respect To
Accessing Foreign Works or Sharing
Accessible Copies of U.S. Works With
Foreign Persons
Please comment on the experiences of
the blind or persons with other
disabilities with respect to accessing
foreign works within the United States,
or sharing accessible copies of U.S.
works with similarly-situated persons
outside the United States. What kinds of
specific policies, practices and projects
exist or are emerging in the education,
library and business sectors? How do
existing laws create incentives or
constrain efforts? Please describe the
ways in which technology has
influenced or could assist in providing
access to foreign works or the sharing of
accessible copies. What are the legal or
practical impediments to transnational
access and how are they interrelated?
C. Other Comments on Facilitating and
Enhancing Access to Copyrighted Works
Please comment on the likely success
of measures identified above under the
subsection entitled ‘‘Possible Actions’’
under SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION.
How might the measures best be
leveraged, alone or in combination, to
enhance access for the blind or other
persons with disabilities? Are there
additional governmental or private
sector actions that might serve the
objective of enhancing access to
copyrighted works for the blind or
persons with other disabilities?
