The Washington Talking Book & Braille Library is seeking the return of talking book players, alias cassette machines for the blind. Look for large, square-ish tape/cassette players with 1970's styling, a yellow plastic body, and colored keys. These players are Federal property and are still needed and used by Library patrons. Families often don't realize the players must be returned.
There is currently a shortage of players. Even if players are not working, they can be repaired or used for parts. Please assist in the rescue of any unused players. For instructions on returning equipment without cost to you, please call 1-800-542-0866 or 206-615-0400.
Your reward is the gratitude of blind, deaf-blind, low-vision, physically disabled, and learning disabled Library patrons who must have these players to read the Library's talking books.
