Hi Dave,
I have the 22nd/ room 1 on my calendar.
Thanks for sharing the info on the Akron Library.
FYI the State of Ohio previously had a library in Cincinnati, as well as Cleveland.
Good job!
Pat

They’re also building an Accessible Zone along the far wall, which will include screen reading software, a closed circuit television and other accessible devices. We also got the library working with the state library to become a sub-lending library for the Talking Book machine program, and the braille books we donated will be on the shelves…hopefully by Christmas. Lots of red tape to get that done but at least it’s underway.
