When was the last time you visited your local library?

\\n

For me, it was prior to the pandemic and working full time.

\\n

Throughout the years, I\\u2019ve visited the local library for book, books on tape and videos.

\\n

Recently I visited the local library for the visually impaired, blind, and print disabled community.

\\n

Though I knew about the library, I didn\\u2019t know about the services for the print disabled and learning disabled dyslexic community being serviced.

\\n

I recommend you check out the National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled for a friend, family member, or for yourself at:

\\n

https://www.loc.gov/nls/about/eligibility-for-nls-services/talking-books-reading-disabilities/

\\n

Download the application at:

\\n

"Applications for service are available on your local network library website or can be found below (PDFs) for individuals (in English and Spanish) and institutions. Once downloaded and completed, please print out, have it signed by a certifying authority, and mail to your local network library."

\\n\\n

Leave a comment on this introduction to the library services, what caught your attention, or what services you have used that you found/find helpful.

\\n

Thank you for listening and make it a great day.
