Project poster

The Washington Talking Book Library is committed to serving the needs of Washington residents that are unable to read standard print material due to blindness, visual impairment, deaf-blindness, physical disabilities, or reading disability. In addition to librarians and staff, patrons at the library are served by an auto-select function in the catalog that sorts through and matches individual preferences with appropriate books--for patrons new to the library, this function may not serve their interests. For new and experienced patrons alike, the collection will offer something new to explore. The Crowd-Pleasers Collection aims to give patrons what they want to read.
