Textbooks

Since TBBC is like a public library, like public libraries we do not carry textbooks.

However, we frequently get questions about textbooks. We tell people about RFB&D (Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic) at http://www.rfbd.org.

I just learned about a webinar put on by Bookshare that parents and teachers may find helpful: How to get my child accessible textbooks.

It's tomorrow! Full information is here: https://cc.readytalk.com/cc/schedule/display.do?udc=fxnr1dyersrf 

I have a meeting tomorrow so cannot participate. However, I will register because the webinar will be recorded and available for watching & listening to later.

Bookshare has additional information about accessible textbooks at its blog: http://blog.bookshare.org/2010/09/15/parents-in-the-know-where-are-the-accessible-textbooks/
