[blindLaw] Reading jaws out loud in school library

Hi! I did not use my law library as a space to study. However, I sometimes
studied in the library during college. When I was in a public area within
the library, I for sure used headphones. Libraries are supposed to be
quiet! Keep in mind though that many academic libraries have carrels, and
those are fine for using JAWS without headphones. Another idea to try is to
occupy a classroom—or auditorium if you are feeling expansive—during off
hours on the weekend or some evenings. You can do whatever you want in
regard to audio preferences in those settings.


Sincerely,

Nikki
