If you have a disability that makes printed text difficult to read, there is support available.
Legimus

Order course literature
If you have an account in Legimus, you can order the compulsory literature for the course you have been admitted to. The reading list for each MDU course is published eight weeks before the course starts. You need to check that the books you are going to use are available in Legimus.
Are you missing a book in Legimus?
If you are missing compulsory books, you can order them by filling in the form below. It is not possible to have individual chapters read. The University Library will send your order to MTM, which produces talking books and e-text. It takes 6-12 weeks to produce the books in Legimus.
