Book Description
Excerpt from Library Work With the Blind The New York State Library for the Blind was founded in March 1896. It was the first of the five state libraries which now have departments for the blind and has the third largest collection of books for the blind in the country. In 1896 the Detroit Public Library placed 110 volumes on its shelves. The reading-room for the blind in the Library of Congress was opened in 1897. The librarian's report for that year states that in a library of a national character and reopening under improved conditions it was deemed wise to make some pro vision for the blind. The library was therefore started with a good collection of books and music which had come to it mainly through the operation of the copyright laws. These were the pioneers in the library work for the blind. There are now between 60 and 70 libraries owning and circulating embossed type books. The names of these libraries are given in the report of the Committee on Work for the Blind of the American Library Association to the Berkeley meeting in 1915.
