We have in the IEP that the boooks will be stored in the rooms so that Jason has equal access to his books as the other students.

There is a set of books at school, and a set at home. Unfortunately, the books at school are all stored in the "Vision Room" other than the one they are currently in. Which means many times Winona is without a book because the teacher skipped around, or they finished a volume, and no one is willing to go downstairs to get it.

This reads as if you are storing her school books at your home, is this correct? The school stores all of Jason's school books, mostly in each individual classroom. He pulls the correct volume and if needed brings one home for homework. Even with just the personal books space is an issue, we have volumes of Harry Pottter which he has already read but we want to keep lined up behind the sofa.

We need some storage solutions! We're in a house with no garage, no basement, no attic space, very small closets. Where do you store all the Braille books and games? 

Winona has 3 tall bookcases in her room all full without. 1 bookcase with her personal books, toys, little goodies. We still have 6 boxes of books that aren't unpacked. There is no place to store the boxes full of books, and it's easier for Winona to get to them on bookcases. All the teachers have a variety of books, and they jump around in them. 

Our other issue is the games. We turned half the linen closet into a game cabinet, but most of the adapted games (scrabble, monopoly) won't even fit into that cabinet. Where do you store things so that they are accessible and yet not sitting around to be tripped over?

Thanks for any and all suggestions!
