Services

ABLE Library is a free national library program that provides braille and recorded materials to people who cannot see regular print or handle print materials. If you are prevented from reading standard print due to blindness, visual impairment, physical disability, or a reading disability, you may be eligible for services.

Technology

The Library has desktop computers and laptops available to use within the Library. Using a computer and the WiFi network is free and available to everyone. The desktop computers on the 2nd floor all contain the screen reader, Microsoft Narrator.

There is a low vision desktop computer, which provides larger font, cursor, and icons as well as increased contrast.
