Lorrie shares how CTBL keeps the joy of reading alive for folks who can’t access traditional print—whether due to vision loss, dyslexia, or even paper allergies (yes, that’s a thing!). With a national connection and a treasure trove of audiobooks, players, Braille, and large print, CTBL is like a magical book genie—minus the lamp. And the best part? It’s all free! Outline:  00:18 - Meet Lorrie Spoering  01:43 - What is CTBL?  03:57 - Helping someone get signed up 06:15 - What do patrons receive?  07:23 - What are patrons looking for? 10:27 - What else should we know?  14:14 - Outreach  15:30 - Closing  Resources:  Colorado Talking Book Library CTBL Application To reach Lorrie Spoering with any questions about CTBL’s services, please email [email protected]. Tell us what you think!If you give us a listen, please let us know what you think by completing a short feedback survey for this episode.  CSL projects like this one are funded in part by the Grants to States program administered by the federal Institute of Museum and Library Services.
