This free service is available to students who are blind, visually impaired, or learning disabled. Because of the time factor involved in ordering, taping, and supplying texts, it is strongly recommended that students supply the Coordinator with a list of required course texts at least four months prior to the start date of a course. Tapes are recorded on four tracks and therefore can only be played on four-track tape players. A limited number of portable tape players are available for loan from the Special Readers' Services.
