I'm excited that a paper I wrote with some MathML in DAISY committee colleagues (Dennis Leas, Emilia Persoon, and Michael Zacherle) has just been published in the Oct-Dec issue of IEEE Multimedia. The article is a nice overview (said with all due humility) to many aspects of DAISY, covering not only the technical aspects of DAISY books, but how they are produced, what they look like when played, and users' experiences reading them. It should come as no surprise to readers of this blog that the paper has an emphasis on putting math in DAISY books.
IEEE has a very enlightened policy towards copyrights, so we've put the paper up on our website. You can get that paper and other papers on accessibility from our Math Accessibility Articles web page.
It is unbelievable that something so they have made available. I am very pleased to have read this.
DAISY is fantastic and offers great opportunities.
I am curious how it will go!
Thank you!
