CT LAB, also known as the CT Library for Accessible Books, is a FREE service of the CT State Library in partnership with the National Library Service. CT residents who struggle to read a physical book due to visual, physical or reading disabilities can qualify for access to tools such as talking book players, refreshable Braille display machines, a catalog of thousands of books, magazines, and music scores, and so much more. Our guest today is….. Matt Geeza, a host of the show!! He takes Ashley and Kym through the application process, the technology, resources, and the variety of ways that CT LAB services can support CT readers! We’ll have an extra special “guest” make a vocal appearance, and Matt says it’s okay to increase the speed of talking books. Don’t let others lie to you.
