National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled
The National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled (NLS) is a program of the Library of Congress that provides free library services to individuals who are unable to read standard print due to visual impairments or physical disabilities. NLS offers a wide range of materials, including audiobooks, braille books, and large-print books, which can be accessed through a network of local libraries.
NLS also provides specialized equipment, such as digital players, to help users enjoy their reading materials. The service aims to ensure that everyone, regardless of their reading ability, has access to literature and information, promoting inclusivity and lifelong learning.
