Assistive Devices for
Reading

No. 93-02
Introduction
The devices listed in this reference
circular are designed to provide people with visual or physical
disabilities access to print information. The circular includes
devices that hold a book or turn the pages of a book, that magnify
print material either manually or electronically, and that convert
print into braille or synthetic speech.
Section I lists available products, Section
II is a selective list of books and journal articles that evaluate
specific devices, and Section III gives the addresses and telephone
numbers of the producers and vendors. Because prices are subject
to change without notice, companies should be contacted directly
to verify current prices and product specifications.
Items listed in this reference circular
are not part of the National Library Service for the Blind and
Physically Handicapped program, and their listing does not imply
endorsement.
