Which statement about NIMAS is correct?

• A. It provides access to teacher's manuals only
• B. It ensures accessible formats of print textbooks for eligible students
• C. It reduces the cost of textbooks
• D. It applies only to college courses

Answer: (B)

NIMAS is about making print textbooks accessible by providing a standard, machine‑readable version of instructional materials so they can be transformed into accessible formats for students with print disabilities. Publishers supply NIMAS files that capture the textbook content and structure, and those files are made available to authorized state and local education agencies through the NIMAC to produce formats like braille, large print, audio, or accessible digital text for eligible students. This ensures that the same instructional content is reachable in formats that meet individual needs.

The statement that best fits this purpose is that it ensures accessible formats of print textbooks for eligible students. It’s not about teacher manuals, it isn’t primarily about reducing cost, and it’s aimed at K‑12 instructional materials under IDEA, not college courses.
