[Michlib-l] Public Libraries: Celebrate World Site Day by becoming a Demonstration Site for BTBL!

[Wambaugh, Stephanie (LARA)]

World Site Day is October 8, 2015! This annual day of awareness is held to generate global attention on blindness and vision impairment.  To celebrate, the Braille and Talking Book Library is encouraging even more public libraries to get signed up as Demo Sites for our program.

For those of you unfamiliar with our free service, BTBL offers audio books, magazines, and braille titles to Michigan residents with visual or physical disabilities that are unable to utilize standard print materials. Demo sites are issued a digital talking book machine, a book on cartridge, and promotional materials to display at the discretion of each location.  We already have close to 60 public library demo sites throughout Michigan. If you are interested in signing up your public library as a demo site, please contact BTBL at 1-800-992-9012 for more information.

And, as always, a BIG thank you to all the public libraries out there that are already Demo Sites. We appreciate you! Happy (almost) World Site Day!
