Services for Residents with Visual, Physical or Reading Disabilities

Do you or someone you know have challenges with reading standard print materials due to a visual, physical or reading disability? LAMP/Library of Accessible Media for Pennsylvanians has two regional libraries in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh that can help.

Any person who has challenges using standard print materials due to a visual, physical or reading disability is eligible to use LAMP's service. Registration for the service requires certification of eligibility by a doctor, social worker or librarian.

For those who register, materials are available in multiple formats with the use of special equipment on the Internet. Braille and large print books are available in person or by mail. Postage is free. The federal and state governments share the cost to provide this important service.

Remember to check your local public library for availability of large print or audio books.
