What it requires
- If you publish books for use in the curriculum of the Puerto Rico Department of Education, expect the Department to require you to supply a copy of each book on a computer disk in American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) format, including science, mathematics and music materials, so that it can be reproduced in Braille (Ley 85-2018, Art. 10.08(D)).
These lines are LexLint's reading of the law's text.
What this law does
The Department of Education must require every publishing house that publishes books for use in the Department's curriculum to supply a copy of the material on a computer disk in ASCII format. Besides literary subjects, the publisher must supply other subjects such as science, mathematics and music in the same format. The Department collaborates with publishers so that textbooks are translated into ASCII for reproduction in Braille. The Article was added by Ley 81-2025. Ley 81-2025 was approved on , and took effect on approval.
