To utilize this accommodation if approved, include Note-taking when you request accommodations for your classes in myDPRC and then email with your note-taker's name and SF State ID number. In the event the student does not want to recruit a volunteer note-taker, the DPRC is happy to provide access to Note-Taking Express (see above) or you are encouraged to speak with a Disability Specialist to review other note-taking options. The DPRC can assist in facilitating this with the volunteer note-taker if need be. For some DPRC students, it may be a necessary accommodation to receive a set of typed notes from the course. Notes can be shared by coming to the DPRC front desk to request that free photocopies be made of the notes, NCR (carbonless-copy paper) note-taking paper can be supplied at the DPRC front desk, or a picture or copy of the note-document can be emailed. In most cases, the volunteer will then be eligible to receive access to priority registration for the following semester. Note-takers can be recruited by the student or instructor. Volunteer note-takers enrolled in the same course as the DPRC student may be able to share a copy of their in-class notes.
