Hi Perri:

 

Perhaps the patron would benefit from the services of Michigan’s Blind and Talking Book Library ( BTBL)?

https://www.michigan.gov/leo/0,5863,7-336-94422_28313_54234---,00.html

 

He can give them a call and the awesome staff there will tell him about their services. 800-992-9012

 

I hope this helps!

Sincerely,

Clare

I have a patron that needs large print books but also has terrible arthritis and can't hold a hardcover book (or thick paperbacks).

If you have thinner (I'll say 1 inch or skinnier) paperback large print books that he might like, could you send me the title and your MeL code?  I have tried to search for books for him on MeL, but I usually can't tell if it's hardcover or paperback.  If I have a title and your code, I can zero right in on a particular book.

Thanks in advance.  This will really help our patron!

Perri
