The Benefits of Large-Print Books and How to Build Your Collection

Last week at Reading Roundup, Thorndike generously donated large print books for MASL members. We are excited to follow-up with an Affinity Session on Wednesday, April 30th from 5-6pm.

Join Liz Guillemette, the Library Media Specialist at Maranacook Community High School, to talk about her experience building a large-print collection. Representatives from Thorndike Press will discuss their research on the benefits of large print books as well as resources for building a collection. 

For members who attend the Zoom session, we will raffle off a selection of large-print texts donated by Thorndike. Don't miss the chance to win some books for your school library!

Thorndike will also have a coupon for all attendees.
