[AG-EQ] Garden book

Thu May 21 11:54:43 UTC 2020

Hi Susan.
I know the NJ state NLS folks are working from home, so probably your guys
are, too.
While I'm recommending garden books from NLS, I enjoy the Horticulture
magazine, which seems to come out every 2 months or so.  They have articles
on different plants, insects, soil, public gardens, all sorts of garden
things.  I rev up the speed a little when I'm listening.  I always find it
interesting.  I'll have to find out if I can get a notification or something
when it comes out, so I don't have to remember to go look for it.

Tracy,

I don't know about the staffing at our local NLS for the Blind is
these days, but I will check into signing up for bard.  We are such
avid readers and are constantly ordering books to read, some we keep,
others we turn into our favorite used book store for book credit.  My
husband and I always have an audio book going in the kitchen and he
also has an audio book going in his truck.  I set aside my NLS books
that I know he is interested in so we can read them together.  We have
found many new authors to read via the NLS books.
