Print material accessibility in Canada, 2023 / by Carrly McDiarmid.: CS89-654/2023-3E-PDF
"Following the implementation of the Accessible Canada Act (ACA) in 2019, an increased emphasis has been placed on identifying, removing and preventing barriers to accessibility, to support the goal of a barrier-free Canada by 2040. Many Canadians experience barriers in different areas of their daily lives, including obtaining print material in formats that are accessible to them. These formats can include large print, electronic, audio, or braille versions or documents that have accessibility features built in. It has been previously estimated that only 5-7% of published products are made available in an alternate format"--Introduction, page 4.
