Annual Report

July 2008-June 2009

The Andrew Heiskell Braille and Talking Book Library serves patrons who are eligible to borrow materials from the National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped in the Downstate New York Region, which consists of the five boroughs of New York City, plus Long Island. The Long Island Talking Book Library, a sub-regional library, circulates talking books to its patrons, but relies on the Andrew Heiskell Library for braille, talking book machines, and administrative oversight.
