The
Advisory Commission on Accessible
Instructional Materials in Postsecondary
Education for Students with Disabilities
(the Commission) is established under
Section 772 of the Higher Education
Opportunity Act, Public Law 110–315,
dated August 14, 2008. The Commission
is established to conduct a
comprehensive study, which will—(I)
‘‘assess the barriers and systemic issues
that may affect, and technical solutions
available that may improve, the timely
delivery and quality of accessible
instructional materials for
postsecondary students with print
disabilities, as well as the effective use
of such materials by faculty and staff;
and (II) make recommendations related
to the development of a comprehensive
approach to improve the opportunities
for postsecondary students with print
disabilities to access instructional
materials in specialized formats in a
time frame comparable to the
availability of instructional materials for
postsecondary nondisabled students.’’
In making recommendations for the
study, ‘‘the Commission shall consider—
(I) how students with print disabilities
may obtain instructional materials in
accessible formats within a time frame
comparable to the availability of
instructional materials for nondisabled
students; and to the maximum extent
practicable, at costs comparable to the
costs of such materials for nondisabled
students; (II) the feasibility and
technical parameters of establishing
standardized electronic file formats,
such as the National Instructional
Materials Accessibility Standard as
defined in Section 674(e)(3) of the
Individuals with Disabilities Education
Act, to be provided by publishers of
instructional materials to producers of
materials in specialized formats,
institutions of higher education, and
eligible students; (III) the feasibility of
establishing a national clearinghouse,
repository, or file-sharing network for
electronic files in specialized formats
and files used in producing
instructional materials in specialized
formats, and a list of possible entities
qualified to administer such
clearinghouse, repository, or network;
(IV) the feasibility of establishing
market-based solutions involving
collaborations among publishers of
instructional materials, producers of
materials in specialized formats, and
institutions of higher education; (V)
solutions utilizing universal design; and
(VI) solutions for low-incidence, high-

cost requests for instructional materials
in specialized formats.’’
The Commission will meet in open
session on Tuesday and Wednesday,
and will discuss the content of the
Commission report. The Commission
will also address unresolved issues that
have previously been discussed by the
Commission’s four task forces. The
Commission will also receive briefings
from subject matter experts on several
different topics of interest.
The purpose of the public hearing is
for the Commission to receive
information from its stakeholders on
issues pertaining to accessible
instructional materials in postsecondary
education. The public hearing session
will address issues related to law,
technology, the market model, and lowincidence/high-cost materials.
Additionally, the public hearing will
focus on individual experiences related
to accessible instructional materials in
postsecondary education.
Detailed minutes of the meeting and
hearing, will be available to the public
within 14 days of the meeting. Records
are kept of all Commission proceedings
and are available for public inspection
