On Friday, May 14, young customers of the New Jersey State Library Talking Book and Braille Center and their parents got an up-close circus experience on a visit to the Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus at the Sun Center, Trenton. During the Blind Touch Tour, the children met the performers, petted the animals, juggled with the clowns, and played with some larger-than-life props.

One of the things that we here at the library do is leave the library! We go out for many different reasons; to visit libraries; to make presentations on the library so that people know what we have; to promote the library at different events.
