SensusAccess

SensusAccess is a free tool that's available to all SPU , that faculty and students. The tool can convert file formats into other formats or more accessible formats, such as making a PDF more accessible, creating an audio translation of a file, an ebook or creating a file in Daisy or Braille format.  

Files are converted in a "fast-food" style format, so while documents become more accessible, they may still be imperfect and students with accommodations should still work with Disability Support Services.

Note
titleLimitations

Files need to be of good quality and may require some editing after the conversion through SensusAccess.



Tip

Using the Tool

Go to the Disability Support Services page about the Online Text Conversion Tool to get started.
