- W289226449 abstract "In the typical university setting, a student is usually expected to spend two-to-three times as many hours outside the classroom doing reading, homework and research as he or she may spend in class. This amount of outside work continues to grow in both volume and importance as a student progresses to higher level classes, finally reaching very critical proportions in graduate school. For students who participate in distance learning settings, however, the task of going to the library takes on new and very different dimensions. A rapidly growing number of universities have now begun to offer distance education classes, and we now have seen a variety of delivery techniques developed to service the needs of remote students. Indeed, there are a number of institutions of higher learning now existing primarily as virtual universities. Although some experience may be gained by examining how various organizations have tackled this problem, of particular concern for this presentation is just how the textbook and access needs of students with disabilities can be met without the possibility of physically going to the library or the campus special services office for assistance. Typically, a university will want to structure services to deal with three major areas: reference services, document delivery and information literacy needs. In the area of reference services, libraries need to insure that online catalogs and bibliographic databases are compatible with commonly used access systems. Normally, a special reference email address is designated by which remote students may receive quick answers to specific reference questions. Email access, together with online tutorials, can also go a long way to providing a student's information literacy needs--that is, teaching students how to effectively utilize information sources. Document delivery is usually the area most problematic when considering the needs of students with print disabilities. In a common distance learning setting, students are sold print copies of their textbooks which are then mailed to them. Other books needed for research and independent reading are typically circulated to students by direct mail as well. Journal articles and other selected readings are usually put on the instructor's web page established especially for the course. Many universities are only now considering what to do for remote students who cannot access information in printed form. Although articles are being scanned and put up on the web, institutions do not always do such a good job at making sure these web pages are accessible with assistive technology devices. Books, however, continue to be the weakest link in providing accessible services to remote students. …" @default.
