Equal and not separate Reading Rights
By Alicia Waters | May 20, 2009
The Reading Rights Coalition is a collaborative effort by 30 nationally recognized organizations that represent those who cannot read print. The coalition members believe access to the written word is the cornerstone of education and democracy and that new technologies must serve individuals with disabilities, not impede them. Ths group protests the threatened removal of the text-to-speech function from e-books for the Amazon Kindle 2.
