ONCE, the National Organization of the Spanish Blind, has written to
the Spanish government requesting the support for the WBU WIPO treaty
proposal.

ONCE argues that although Spain has a good exception for the blind,
the WBU proposal will allow other governments to amend their copyright
laws in a similar manner and that this proposal will also have
benefits for the trans-border distribution of works. The letter
highlights that the WBU treaty proposal will allow the creation of a
global platform for the distribution of accessible documents.

The letter is available here.
