Special Announcement News Wire:
Accessible World is very pleased to announce that due to the kind permission
of Bonnie Bloce, the great host of Books and Beyond, we will download
selective programs of interest to the blind community.
To access the programs, please go to: www.accessibleworld.org and find Books
and Beyond under Special programs.
Our first program is a wonderful interview with Dr. James Kutsch, the
President of The Seeing Eye. Seeing Eye is celebrating its 80th anniversary
as the first dog guide school in the United States.
We hope that you will download and enjoy this program as I did.
