[nabs-l] Braille music

They are not the ones who said that a minor could not call.  It 
was someone else, who obviously had no clue.

I thought there was just a number to call and it would put me 
through to nls?

Marisa,

If you have registered, its best to call the music section in DC 
for music
material; for general info, call your local network library.  
Chris is
incorrect; you do not call the state library for general matters.  
For
talking books, you call your local network library which is from 
the county
usually; you need to ask someone that is working with you like 
your TVI
about this because they know your situation.  We cannot give you 
the number
for your local library because we do not know where you live.
Also, I've read some messages and some info is incorrect.  There 
is a
difference between what the big main headquarters nls staff does 
in Dc
versus your state regional library versus your local network 
library.

If you want to call yourself, do some research and advocacy to 
find the
right point of contact.  Your TVI would know or your parents, but 
it does not
sound like they are encouraging you to call yourself.

Try looking at nls.loc.gov.  I believe there is a link on that
page which is titled "Find a Library." All state library info can
be found there.  You would call your state's library to apply if
they don't have the form on their Web site.

Allright, I'll try to call tomorrow or something.  But I'll be
at a  friends house, so is there a way to find the number in a
book or something?

Hi,

Speaking as someone who just called NLS, there is nothing which
says a
minor cannot call.  This is a ridiculous statement, as regular
libraries also let minors check out books on their own cards.
Like
Joshuah, iI have been using NLS since I was 8 or 9 and never had
an
issue, especially with the music office in D.C.

I think the isue is not so mch a confusion on the rules, but an
assumption that minors cannot call for themselves or a fear of
being
on the phone.  As I have said before, the best way to conquer
these
things is to just do it and get some practice, and NLS
personelle are
the best kind of people to start with.
