ESE students NOT eligible???
The IEP team has decided that an ESE student needs the Science Voyagers book in electronic format yet the student does not qualify for NIMAS files. What should the school do to ensure the student has access to appropriate instructional materials?

What’s required to be in NIMAC?
State adopted, core instructional materials with copyright dates AFTER August 18, 2006
Other books may be available through NIMAC, but they are not required to be deposited
If book is not in NIMAC, the district is responsible for procuring and providing the accessible instructional materials

True or False? NIMAC has the electronic file for the
National Edition of Science Voyagers (2005 copyright). Your student needs the Florida Edition of the same book. The DRM should order the National Edition for the student.

National versus State Editions National editions are not included in the
Florida contractual agreements with publishers.
The district must have a purchased copy of that specific book before NIMAS/Florida can request that the book be converted
Two editions can be dramatically different

Students with Visual Impairments

Services will include access to NIMAS files
Because of Federal Quota Funds, it is important that students with visual impairments are registered with FIMC-VI and NOT NIMAS/Florida

Finding the right file format…• You have a student with CP that
cannot manage a regular print text book. She uses a laptop for reading and writing. Her assessments indicate that she needs audio text that is supported with visual cues such as highlighting. What would be the best file format to request?
