Abstract: The article presents information on new formats, which are useful for students with visual disabilities. Students who are blind or have print disability such as dyslexia, use electronic resources and computer software rather than traditional textbooks. The main barrier delaying the arrival of alternative resources is the numerous file formats, like PDF and Microsoft word, into which published books can be transformed. In response to this and NCLB, the U.S. Department of Education created a voluntary nationwide format standard, called the National Instructional Materials Accessibility Standard. It will distribute modern digital materials, including Braille textbooks, electronic textbooks to which students can listen, and files to enlarge print for students with low vision.
