In New Jersey, Newark Public Library has become the latest to launch the Library Equal Access Program (LEAP.)
LEAP is about providing important skills on how to use things like assistive technology, such as magnification and audio reading tools to help blind and visually impaired users with reading websites, emails and other documents.
LEAP gives access to the internet for the blind and visually impaired through beginner-level assistive technology software training, thanks to the new technology installed on the library’s computers and iPads.
