CDR offers captioning services to faculty and staff for their student who are authorized for captioning or audio description.
- If you need to make a request to have a video captioned, please contact the student’s Access Coordinator at least 14 business days in advance.
Please note:
- It can be difficult to obtain copyright clearance for materials provided via web links (URLs). Materials provided as digital files and in physical formats usually do not present a problem.
- It may take longer than the specified time frame to add captions to videos depending on the quality, length of video, and other factors. We will make every attempt to assist you with the captioning process in a timely fashion.
Helpful Tools and Tips for Finding Videos that have closed-captions:
- SU Library Service
- Syracuse University Video Captioning Resources
- YouTube is a great resource for finding previously-captioned videos
