Why does RFB&D record in specialized formats?
The main reason RFB&D records books in specialized formats is to comply with US copyright law. The law allows us to duplicate titles provided we offer them in specialized formats to an eligible population. In our case, that population includes people with documented disabilities, such as a learning disability, visual impairment or other physical disability.
