Visually-impaired assistance includes:

- New computer workstation for the visually impaired:
ZoomText Screen Magnifier. Thanks to a generous donation from the Avon Lions Club and the Library's Mitnick Trust, we have a new computer with a 21 inch widescreen monitor and ZoomText screen magnifier software to assist people with limited vision in using the computer more easily. You can enlarge text, change screen colors to eliminate glare and reduce eyestrain, plus enlarge the mouse pointer and text cursor so it's all easier to see. To reserve this computer and receive help getting started, call Reference at 673-9712.
