We have Readers all OVER the United States

 Remember when I highlighted my favorite corn crib south of town last week. The one that is being disassembled? Well, we have readers all over the country that read the 

Murdock and Elmwood newsletters and this photo came from Dwight Irwin. 

Apparently, it was a favorite area landmark of his too. Thanks, Dwight!

Did you know that the Elmwood Public Library has a nice selection of Large Print books available?

We also receive a rotating collection of Large Prints on a monthly basis from the Morton-James Public Library in Nebraska City.

 If you have a specific topic of interest or favorite author that you would like to see made available via Large Print books, please let one of our library staff know! We can specifically request these materials for you.

Also, with the help of the Nebraska Library Commission, your Elmwood library can obtain free audiobooks and Braille materials for those with a visual or physical condition, or a reading disability which limits the use of regular print.

Elmwood Public Library is working hard to meet the needs of our visually impaired patrons.
