Digital Accessible Information SYstem...
- The DAISY XML standard is our core format
- Books are read on a computer using synthetic speech
- NISO/DAISY XML specification enables text-based navigation, such as page numbers, and paragraphs
- Think of it as a web page (HTML) plus a couple of extra tags (page numbers, chapters)
- NIMAS (the new K-12 accessible textbook standard in the U.S.) is based on DAISY
