Big things are happening at the library!

We’re excited to share that a Topaz page magnifier is now available for use at the library!
This wonderful accessibility tool was made possible through a generous donation from our friends at the Southern Illinois Center for Independent Living.

The Topaz magnifier provides clear, enlarged text and images. This machine is perfect for reading books, mail, forms, and more. Patrons are welcome to stop by the computer lab and try it anytime during open hours. You can also reserve a room for more private reading.

We’re grateful for our partners who help us make the library more accessible for everyone in our community.
