ALA 2009 Presentation to ASCLA -- Large Print for All: Bigger is Better

I will be presenting as part of a panel on Sunday morning. The gist of my presentation is that
Libraries have an opportunity to increase their patron base by better serving visually impaired patrons. This will allow them to retain current patrons as those patrons age, and it will also allow them to retrieve or recover patrons who have stopped using the public library because of the limited range of books available in large print. ReadHowYouWant has the technology to make this practical by lowering the cost of large print editions.

A PDF of my presentation is here. If you want it in PowerPoint format, let me know.
