25th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act

NLS - That All May Read

The National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped (NLS) has launched a new outreach campaign called "That All May Read". This campaign is intended to provide information about the NLS's free service to those with a visual or physically disability that prohibits them from reading standard or large print. For this campaign they seem to be highlighting the availability of electronic resources, specifically the BARD database and BARD Mobile app. Currently the BARD Mobile app is only available on Apple devices. An app for Android devices is currently in the testing phase and may be released very soon.
