Individuals who have low to no vision or are legally blind—or who have reading or other physical disabilities—often cannot use printed materials, depriving them of reading materials that most take for granted.
At the Burbank Central Library and the Buena Vista Branch, we offer a selection of digital cassettes (recorded books) from the Braille Institute Library. We offer books-on-demand based on the patron's reading preferences. Sign up with a Librarian today. Please notify the information services desk when you are checking out or returning the cassettes.
Patrons may also trade in an issued cassette machine that is faulty or broken and receive a new one. Applications are available at both libraries for eligible patrons to register to become Braille Institute Library users.
