Q. Do you have materials available for the blind?
Answer
For our customers with visual limitations, we have a large collection of books available on CD, both fiction and nonfiction. These materials check out for three weeks. In addition, we subscribe to a large online collection of audiobooks available for download to your computer or mobile device.
The Northeast Georgia Talking Book Center provides free library services for patrons with visual, physical, and reading disabilities. The Center loans books and magazines in audio and Braille formats, as well as the necessary players. Books and players are mailed back and forth at no cost to the patron.
You can also find available resources by going to the website for GLASS - Georgia Libraries for Accessible State Services. They recently added a resource list called GLASS RSVP which is a list of organizations that provide services to people with visual and print impairment both in Georgia and nationwide.
