Access tens of thousands of books—from current best sellers to much-loved classics, popular magazines, and music instruction and scores—in audio and electronic braille, with new selections added daily.
This app allows access for eligible users who have enrolled in the National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled (NLS) at the Library of Congress.
NLS provides free audio and braille reading materials to residents of the US and American citizens living abroad who cannot read regular print.
If you are blind or have temporary or permanent low vision or a physical or reading disability that prevents you from holding or reading the printed page, you may be eligible for this program.
If you are already an NLS patron, contact your cooperating NLS library to request a BARD account.
To enroll, call 1-888-NLS-READ (1-888-657-7323) and follow the prompts to find your state.
BARD Mobile is a service of NLS.
