Abstract

Different legal bases such as the Federal Discrimination Act on People with Disabilities and the eGovernment law show the importance of web accessibility and it is well known that technical accessibility is not compre-hensive without an adequate usability. Nevertheless, from the point of view regarding a comprehensive accessibility of information this will be too little especially with regard to people with learning disabilities. Little organizations currently are used to the realization of easy-to-read. This affects the production of print materials but also the offer of easy-to-read on the internet. Following this, it is meaningful to build up an information center giving support on these specific aspects.
