MAT Program: Accepting Materials

Contributed by Joseph Beckett, Program Coordinator for MAT

THE MARYLAND ACCESSIBLE TEXTBOOK PROGRAM is accepting textbook conversion requests for print-impaired students attending Maryland’s two and four-year colleges and universities for the upcoming academic year. 

We offer the following formats:

• ·      Audio (MP3)
• ·      Large Print
• ·      PDF
• ·      WORD
• ·      Epub
• ·      Victor Stream loaner with 2gb SD card
• ·      Textbook and academic document scanning, editing, and conversion

Although the Maryland Accessible Textbook Program team can convert textbooks in many subject areas, we, unfortunately, are limited in our ability to convert math, foreign language, or science textbooks into the audio format. We’re diligently working to erase that limitation and will announce when we find conversion software we’re satisfied with.

So, if the services offered by the Maryland Accessible Textbook Program fulfill your textbook conversion requests or if you have additional questions, please contact us: accesible.textbook@maryland.gov
