Week 9, Thing 22

I checked out www.schoollibrary.com . The list of books seemed good but old. I do know that there are books available for blind and visually impaired children, free of charge, from the Texas State Library and TSBVI (Texas School for the Blind and Visually Impaired), on their websites. With the Texas State Library, you have to sign up and they send you a player and two books of your choice. When you finish with the books, you send them back and they will send you one for each one you send back. There are other organizations that have books available but you have to pay a membership. Also, the state textbook department is working on getting an universal type of file so that all of the textbooks and children's books will use the same type of equipment for audio books as well as books that can be sent to an embosser for the Blind.
