Rabbi Andrew Goodman, COO of JBI International has asked that the following
be shared with everyone on this list:
*Free Materials - Including High Holy Day Prayer Books - For Anyone Who is
Blind or Has Low Vision*
JBI can help you or a loved one who is blind or low vision celebrate the
Jewish holidays with FREE *Machzorim*, Selichot, Taschlich prayers, Yizkor
prayers, a 16-month holiday calendar, and much more, all in accessible
formats.
If you or someone you know needs large print, braille, or audio High Holy
Day materials, please visit JBI’s website
<https://cts.vresp.com/c/?JBIInternational/f58a37bfd5/56f84ba410/c765456fb2> or
call our librarians at 212-545-8025. JBI asks that requests for items from
its collection, such as accessible liturgical texts (Selichot and Yizkor
prayers, *Machzorim*) and reference materials be made by September 12 to
arrive by Rosh Hashanah.
Founded in 1931 as The Jewish Braille Institute, JBI provides people of all
ages who are blind, have low vision, are print disabled, or are physically
unable to hold a book, access to texts vital to Jewish culture, heritage,
education, religious life, and community. JBI delivers, free of charge, a
wide variety of Jewish-interest materials in large print, audio, and
braille, directly to our patrons’ doorsteps.
