NIMAS Files

This month we will explore NIMAS files which stands for National Instructional Material Accessibility Standard. A NIMAS file is a source file and must be converted to another format by AIM-VA. Textbook adoption committees may require that publishers provide NIMAS files of student instructional materials as part of their adoption contracts or purchase agreements. AIM-VA can then request the NIMAS files to make them into an accessible format for eligible students.
