</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black">Many public libraries plan and announce their community-wide reads programs in the springtime. These programs come in many styles, shapes, and formats, but
their typical goal is to bring community together by reading a shared piece of literature. <br>
<br>
The Oregon Talking Book and Braille Library, selected last year to be the Oregon Center for the Book, helps local libraries to reach their broadest possible audience by promoting an accessibility mindset in the planning and execution of such programs. Each
community is very likely to have Talking Books users who want to participate, and we can help these users access their community reads program in several ways. <br>
<br>
One way we make this connection is by developing a plan with Oregon public library staff to reach users in their local communities. Talking Books also reaches out to users directly to gauge their interest in participating in local reads programs. If the user
is interested, we connect them to the book directly through our catalog, which eases demand and frees up access to the local library’s limited audiobook copies to non-Talking Books patrons. When programs wrap up, these users can be added to local library tallies,
demonstrating a more accurate picture of local community interest and participation. <br>
<br>
Community-wide reading programs are a great way for Oregonians to share the love of a good book in any format, including eBooks, audiobooks, Braille, and more. Ensuring the inclusion of Talking Books users in these programs expands access and helps to fulfill
the National Library Service’s mission “That All May Read”! </span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black"><br>
