Each Friday the Instructional Materials Center Team will provide answers to questions asked by educators throughout the week in the IMC FAQ Friday post. We hope these are helpful as schools place orders for students who need accessible educational materials.
Thanks to the availability of NLS eReaders for library patrons, a world of braille accessibility is now right at your fingertips. The braille eReader has a 20-cell braille display, an eight-key Perkins-style keyboard.
With online services, you can access BARD, NLS’s online service for accessing books and magazines; NFB Newsline, a service for accessing national and local newspapers, as well as magazines and TV listings; and Bookshare, a subscription-based library of hundreds of thousands of books.
To request your eReader or if would like additional information, please contact Leland Smith, IMC Service Specialist, at 515-336-4179 or leland.smith@blind.state.ia.us.
Questions? Contact IMC Staff at imclibrary@blind.state.ia.us or 515-281-1323.
The IMC Team will provide answers to the questions we have received during the week in our FAQ Friday posts. We hope these are helpful!
