Here's the best I've got with cleaned up text...Don't know if this is the 
whole thing or not:

Revamped state agency seeks to improve services for the blind

By Current State



Braille reading materials are among the services provided by the Michigan 
Bureau of Services for Blind Persons.



Very few of the books published every year come out in a version that is 
accessible to the millions of people who are visually impaired. Earlier this 
year,

 a treaty to address the problem was finalized. It's called "The Marrakesh 
Treaty to Facilitate Access to Published Works for Persons who are Blind, 
Visually

Impaired or Otherwise Print Disabled."



What sorts of books and services are available to Michigan's blind and 
visually impaired residents?



Ed Rodgers, the first Director of the state's new

Bureau of Services for Blind Persons,

is himself visually impaired. He tells Current State that the U.S. Senate 
still hasn't ratified the treaty.
