Request Alternate Media
Please use the links below to submit a request for Alternate Media. You should submit
your request as soon as you have decided to purchase your book(s) or utilize your
accommodation(s) for the semester.
Ideally, DSP should receive requests before the start of the Semester to ensure that
you receive materials in a timely fashion. The faster you submit a request, the sooner
you will receive your material. Please click the appropriate link below to complete
your request:
