Students requesting alternate formats of their textbooks may submit a ticket to this office. Please ensure you have your class schedule for this semester and your proof of purchase. If you have not purchased your books yet, you may continue with the ticket submission. We ask that you provide proof of purchase as soon as possible.

Captioning Support
Request Captioning Support Service(opens in new window)
The Office of Accessible Technology and Services has established a process to support Chico State in creating accessible video and audio files by adding closed captions and transcripts.
Along with being a support center to aide in the creation of closed captions and transcripts, the OATS office is also available as an education center to help teach you how to edit/create your own captions is you choose to do so. For support, submit a request using the captioning services link. We look forward to working with you!
