Recorded Recreational Reading for the Blind is a nonprofit that connects those with vision impairments to their community. The organization is 50 years old and today has only two paid staff and many volunteers who record news, magazine articles, books, and music weekly at no cost for blind, low-vision, and physically disabled who are not able to hold a book or magazine.
Through a partnership with the National Talking Library, tapes are compatible with the equipment already in use. The online Radio channel KRUV includes these recorded materials and much more in programing. www.readingfortheblind.org,
