Resumo: Access to literature for blind people has been going primarily through the braille system. Due to the advancement and popularization of technology, there has been an increased demand for literature in audio in our country. Thus, the study emerged from questioning of how access to literature for blind people has been occurring, and to analyze the implications of using these means of access for blind people. The data collection instrument consisted of a semi structured interview script, which was applied to five blind people. These, in turn, were recorded and transcribed, with the data grouped by thematic blocks in tables and graphs for qualitative and quantitative analysis. The results indicated that older subjects do not give preference to any of the means, because according to them, both have their advantages and disadvantages. The younger subjects demonstrated preference for the audio and braille. We con­clude that both means of access studied haveits positive and negative implications, such that blind people tend to opt for both, but nevertheless, in terms of preference, braille prevails dramatically. We conclude that both means of access have studied its positive and negative implications, such that blind people tend to opt for both, but nevertheless, in terms of preference, braille prevails dramatically.

Devido ao avanço e a popularização da tecnologia, tem ocorrido uma procura maior pela literatura em áudio em nosso país. Dessa forma, o estudo surgiu do questionamento de como o acesso à literatura por pessoas cegas vem ocorrendo, tendo como objetivo analisar as implicações do uso desses meios de acesso por pessoas cegas. O instrumento de coleta de dados consistiu em um roteiro de entrevista semiestruturado, que foi aplicado a cinco pessoas cegas. Estas, por sua vez, foram gravadas e transcritas, com os dados agrupados por blocos temáticos, em tabelas e gráficos, para análise qualitativa e quantitativa. Os resultados indicaram que os sujeitos mais velhos, não dão preferência por nenhum dos meios, pois de acordo com os mesmos, ambos têm suas vantagens e desvantagens. Já os sujeitos mais jovens, revelaram preferência pelo áudio e pelo braille. Conclui-se que, ambos os meios de acesso estudados possuem suas implicações positivas e negativas, de tal forma que as pessoas cegas tendem a optar por ambos, mas apesar disso, em termos de preferência, o braille prevalece drasticamente.Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2016-08-09info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/educacaoespecial/article/view/1052210.5902/1984686X10522Special Education Magazine; Revista Educação Especial, v. 29, n. 55, maio/ago. 2016; 337-350Revista de Educación Especial; Revista Educação Especial, v. 29, n. 55, maio/ago. 2016; 337-350Revista Educação Especial; Revista Educação Especial, v. 29, n. 55, maio/ago. 2016; 337-3501984-686Xreponame:Revista Educação Especial (UFSM)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMporhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/educacaoespecial/article/view/10522/pdfCopyright (c) 2016 Revista Educação Especialinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSantos, VivianPereira, Amanda Cristina dos SantosZorel, Paulo EduardoCosta, Ailton Barcelos daAlmeida, Maria AmeliaDuarte, Marcia2016-08-09T18:01:30Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/10522Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/educacaoespecialPUBhttp://cascavel.ufsm.br/revistas/ojs-2.2.2/index.php/educacaoespecial/oaieducacaoespecial@smail.ufsm.br||clenioberni@gmail.com1984-686X1808-270Xopendoar:2016-08-09T18:01:30Revista Educação Especial (UFSM) - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false
