In honor of Library Card Sign-up Month this September, we want to help you get your patrons with disabilities the materials they need to keep reading. Do you have a patron that is always browsing your large print collection, but even the larger font has started to prove difficult? Do you have a patron that has read all your audio books? Do you have a patron that utilizes a mobility aid? Do you have a patron that has recently had a stroke or debilitating health event? Do you have a patron with a reading disability? If you work in a public library, chances are the answer is yes to at least one of these questions. And if so, the Braille and Talking Book Library<https://www.michigan.gov/leo/bureaus-agencies/bureau-of-services-for-blind-persons/btbl/application-for-service> is here to provide a valuable resource for FREE to your community. We have over 125,000 audio and braille books in our collection for Michiganders that have trouble reading regular print books because of a disability. As a librarian, you can even certify the application<https://www.michigan.gov/leo/bureaus-agencies/bureau-of-services-for-blind-persons/btbl/application-for-service> on behalf of your patron. So if your library is looking for an easy, free partnership that's accessible and convenient, look no further. Contact me directly for more information.
