Access to information communication technologies, universal design and the new disability human rights paradigm introduced by the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities; 3.

The role of copyright laws in restricting access to information and contributing to the book famine; 5. Exceptions to rights-holders' exclusivity provides limited relief from the disabling impact of copyright; 6. Anti-discrimination laws help protect persons with disabilities against digital disablement, but who qualifies for protection?; 7. Causing digital disablement is not a trigger for regulation by anti-discrimination laws: ignoring capacity in favour of prescribed relationships; 8. The prohibition against discrimination: regulating for equality through retrofitting inaccessible systems; 9. Introducing positive duties in promoting equality outcomes for persons with disabilities: the United Kingdom Public Sector Equality Duty reducing digital disablement; 10. The right to digital equality in action: protections under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and human rights acts; 11. United States regulatory interventions targeting disability inclusive digital environments; 12. The enforcement of legal duties: protecting copyright or promoting reading equality?; Closing thoughts and new options to reduce digital disablement; Appendix: list of anti-discrimination and civil rights laws and tribunals/commissions impacting on disability in the federal and state/province jurisdictions in Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States; Index.
