LARGE PRINT Makeover!


Some of you might have noticed changes going on in the LARGE PRINT area. We have decided to separate the fiction and nonfiction to make the it easier for you to find what you are looking for (previously the two genres were all shelved together)!


Spine labels have been updated with the prefix "LP." Fiction is shelved by the author's last name. The nonfiction are organized with Dewey decimal numbers, and new books are labeled with a "NEW" sticker and located on the first shelf of the section. 

Remember, the library is a happening place and your library card is your ticket to free books, magazines, music, movies, Internet access, enriching programs and much more!

 
Sincerely,
 
Amherst Town Library
