Hello,</div>

We are exploring some ideas about tools to assist adult patrons in our library with different needs. We wonder if other libraries have experience with the following concepts.</div>

<div class="elementToProof" role="presentation">Assistive/accessibility technology for low literacy, low vision, and/or non-English speakers to use printed library material. The thought is something that would scan and then read aloud the text of books or other
documents that are challenging for the patron to read. We've seen some different options online such as a handheld pen style scanner or a larger scanner that sits on a table. Does anyone out there have experience with anything like this?</div>

<div class="elementToProof" role="presentation">Assistive technology for computer use. Currently we have a patron who uses Fusion on a library computer by repeatedly using their free trial option. To purchase or subscribe to Fusion is pretty expensive. We wonder
if other libraries have assistive technology they use on their computers and what they think of the product(s) they use.</div>
