Resources at Stanford:

Assistive Learning Technology Center (ALTeC):

The ALTeC lab, located on the second floor of Meyer Library, offers a wide range of resources to make information technology and education more accessible for those with disabilities. The lab has available such things as ergonomic workstations with independently adjustable keyboard and monitor positions; alternative input devices, such as touch pads, special keyboards, and pointing devices; speech recognition software, such as Dragon NaturallySpeaking and IBM ViaVoice; and screenreading software, such as Kurzweil 3000 and WYNN. A new program for students is now offering short-term loans (under 30 days) of software and hardware for evaluation purposes. Services offered by ALTeC include assessment and evaluation of technologies and needs, and one-on-one training in the ALTeC lab.
