“My favorite method of accessing NFB-NEWSLINE is Alexa. I like to access NEWSLINE this way because I do a lot of multitasking. Alexa allows me to access NEWSLINE anytime during my workday. Some people like to turn on a radio for background noise, and so do I. But, I also like to listen to different publications available through NEWSLINE. I am a huge fan of technology. I think Alexa is a fun piece of technology and a convenient way to access the NFB-NEWSLINE service. Since it’s hands-free, I don't even have to stop what I am doing to select a publication.” - Samuel, NFB-NEWSLINE subscriber

*	Alexa can help you select and move through publications easily with a variety of commands
*	The reading voice and speed of articles using the Alexa skill can be altered
*	Any article read by the Alexa skill can be sent to you via email
