The Carroll Valley Library is a great place to get large print books for reading. The library has a collection of thousands of books with big print that can be borrowed for free with a library card.
Largre print isn’t just for older folks.
The large print books help with literacy tools like decoding, fluency, tracking, and comprehension. They can also help seniors or those with visual impairments relax and enjoy reading.
The Carroll Valley Library orders Adult Large Print books from Ingram Content Group. Ingram Content Group is the largest American service provider to the book publishing industry. They have over 7.5 million titles available.
The process of purchasing a book is very easy. First, the library looks for patron requests for books that they would like to read. Then, if the book is available, the library will purchase it from Ingram.
If you are looking for a book that is not available in your library, you can request it through Interlibrary Loan. Interlibrary Loan allows you to borrow books from other libraries outside of your local jurisdiction.
The same process applies for new books. The Carroll Valley Library orders the books from Ingram Content Group, and then they purchase them if they are available. The best part is that the books are free to borrow with a library card.
