Copyright law stops us from sharing files internationally, which leads to pointless duplication of money and resources.
For instance, charities working in five different English speaking countries had to produce five identical braille master files for the same Harry Potter book.
RNIB is supporting a proposed WIPO Treaty for Improved Access for Blind, Visually Impaired and other Reading Disabled Persons. This would allow works made accessible under a copyright exception in one country to be shared with other countries, whilst respecting the rights of the authors and other rights holders.
