>If you are blind or visually impaired and wear hearing aids, Mosen
>Consulting would be grateful for your help.
>Jonathan Mosen and Bonnie Lannom are seeking interview subjects for
>a book on the social, attitudinal, and technological challenges
>faced by blind people who also wear hearing aids. If you'd like to
>help, we'll send you a Word document containing an extensive survey
>that we hope will encourage you to share your experiences. There is
>also the possibility of a follow-up phone interview. You can
>contribute anonymously or potentially have your comments attributed
>to you in the book, whichever you prefer.
>Examples of the issues we're interested in covering include
>experiences bad and good working with audiologists, funding,
>situations you avoid, technologies you've tried that have been
>helpful, and technologies you've tried that have not.
>The goal of the book is to educate current and future blind hearing
>aid users, blindness professionals, hearing aid manufacturers and
>audiologists on the specific social and technological needs people
>with dual sensory loss face when being fitted for hearing devices.
>Participants can be any age from any where in the world.
>Professionals working in the field of blindness are also encouraged
>to participate. If you are interested in completing the survey or
>want more information, please

>Consulting Contact Form and we'll be in touch by email.
>We would also appreciate it if you would circulate this announcement
>widely to people you think may be interested in participating.
>We're mindful that there is also a book to be written on the needs
>of blind people who wear cochlea implants. We understand a separate
>book is being planned on this subject and consider this an important
>and separate matter requiring a book of its own.
>Thanks in advance to all who are willing to help us produce a
>resource we are sure will make a valuable contribution.
