The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.

Subject: New Local Numbers for NFB-NEWSLINE Ohio

 

We are excited to share great news for all Ohioans who enjoy reading
NFB-NEWSLINE! NFB-NEWSLINE is currently sponsored by Opportunities for
Ohioans with Disabilities (OOD). You may know OOD better through contact
with BSVI, Bureau of Services for the Visually Impaired. OOD is proud to
sponsor NFB-NEWSLINE in Ohio and offer twenty-two Ohio newspapers around the
state, in addition to national newspapers, international newspapers,
breaking news, emergency weather alerts and forecasts, job listings and
retail ads.

We are happy to share our second item: NFB-NEWSLINE Ohio formerly has
offered only five local dial-in numbers around the state. We have now added
an additional seven local numbers for listeners in Dayton, Lima, Mansfield,
Portsmouth, Springfield, Toledo, and Youngstown. The original five local
dial-in numbers in Akron, Canton, Cincinnati, Cleveland and Columbus remain
unchanged. 

It is important for NFB-NEWSLINE subscribers to use local numbers whenever
possible and to share these new local dial-in opportunities with both old
and new NFB-NEWSLINE subscribers. While users who do not have local numbers
are always entitled to make use of this number, we can substantially reduce
costs by using these local numbers. 

As you doubtless know, there is absolutely no difference in service or
access to news, weather, job listings, TV-guides and other resources from
NFB-NEWSLINE, regardless of the dial-in number you use. Likewise, if
subscribers call from a cell phone that incurs per-minute charges, user
usually no additional charges are incurred using a local number rather than
the toll-free number.

For your convenience and further sharing, you'll find all the local numbers
below. 

Thank you in advance for generously using and sharing this information.
