Usable Materials Center
The Usable Materials Center (UMC) is a resource for the campus community to help support the University’s mission to provide an inclusive and universally designed academic environment. Faculty can request assistance in making content accessible for their courses, whether they have a student enrolled with a disability or not. NAU staff can request assistance in making training materials, flyers or other documents and media accessible to help ensure equitable access for all recipients.
The purpose of the Center is to assist in making print material and video content accessible for all users.
