Cela (Center for Equitable Library Access)

Access to the CELA collection is restricted to people with print disabilities living in Canada. A print disability is a learning, physical or visual disability that prevents a person from reading conventional print. More specifically, a print disability can be a:

  • Learning disability: An impairment relating to comprehension
  • Physical disability: The inability to hold or manipulate a book
  • Visual disability: Severe or total impairment of sight or the inability to focus or move one's eyes

This definition of print disability is from the Canadian Copyright Act because it is this Act that lets CELA reproduce published materials in alternative formats for its collection. The term used in the Act is “perceptual disability”.
