Reading disability and document access, a possible approach
Final study report
Publication metadata
The European Parliament (EP) has mandated the Publications Office to carry out the “Reading disability and document access, a possible approach” pilot project. As pointed out in the introductory note of Mr Daniele Viotti, former Italian MEP, reading disability is one of the most common neurological conditions that affect European citizens. Public institutions must be accessible and transparent for
everyone, including for the most vulnerable people. Despite the significant efforts made in recent years by EU institutions to improve the accessibility of their documents by establishing more user-friendly publications and public websites, access to relevant EU documents/publications is still problematic for people with reading disabilities. In light of the provisions of “Directive (EU) 2016/2102 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the accessibility of the websites and mobile applications of public sector bodies”, it is important to develop and make available appropriate instruments to ensure that people with reading disabilities have equal access to the documents/publications and websites of EU institutions. The aim of the proposed “Reading disability and document access, a possible approach” pilot project is to make the documents/publications and websites of the Commission and EU institutions more accessible for people with reading disabilities. It describes state-of-the-art best practices as a basis for recommending how to create a “reading disorder-friendly” environment for the publications and websites of EU institutions. It focuses on existing documents/publications (for example PDF and ePub) and websites (which are mainly in HTML format) published by the European institutions.
