| USING THE LIBRARY | |||
| The best way to use the library is to prepare a list of books you would like to order and then call us at (800) 808-2555 or (323) 660-3880. Tell your Reader Advisor the name of the person for whom you are ordering and then tell us what you would like to order. If you receive Talking Book Topics or the yearly catalog, you can use them to create a list of RC numbers (for books on tape) or BR numbers (for books in Braille). If you do not know the numbers for the books you would like, then you can make a list of specific titles and authors. Your reader advisor can find any book in our collection by title, author, or RC or BR number. Once your selection is found, we will arrange to have it mailed to you, if it is available, or put your name on the wait list if it is not available. Once it is mailed to you, your selection will take about two weeks to arrive. You are welcome to call as often as you like and order as many as 10 books per phone call. You can also e-mail book orders to: readers@braillelibrary.orgThe Braille Library does not place any restriction on the number of books you may have checked out at any given time but we do ask that you return each book within its there-month loan period. You can also pick up books at the Library. Call us the day before you are going to be here, and we will have your available selections ready for you to pick up at the library counter. Please contact us if you have any questions or need any further information about your library services. We are open from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday. |
