Thank you so much for your help in getting my aunt signed up for Talking Books. The player and three books came while I was there, so I could get her started. She is loving being able to "read" again. With appreciation.

Thank you very much for the use of the player [cassette player for Talking Books]. It made all the difference for my dyslexic son who is now successfully earning a degree at University of Central Florida. He couldn't have done it without the jump start! Thanks again."

"Thank you so much for sending me the catalogs!! That was so nice of you and my daughter thanks you too! I really appreciate the wonderful job you people do and always so cheerful and pleasant on the phone requests. It is a wonderful service. Once again thank you!!"

"Thanks to you for all the hours of pleasure you've given me through the years."

"Thank you for letting me know about the gifts you have been receiving in memory of my late mother. As a life long avid reader my mother was devastated when macular degeneration robbed her of the pleasure of a good book, until she learned that she could derive the same enjoyment through the Talking Book Library. Your program made an incalculable difference in my mother's life. Listening to her talking books was a daily source of pleasure and intellectual stimulation that added immeasurably to the quality of her life. As you know even when she traveled or was hospitalized her talking tape player was by her side."

On behalf of the entire family I wanted to extend our sincere appreciation for all the pleasure and happiness the talking book library program brought to my mother. Please accept my thanks for all the assistance you and your excellent staff provided with making selections for my mother. The web-based catalog was also particularly helpful in choosing and ordering tapes that would interest her.

The Talking Book Library program brought countless hours of enjoyment during the latter stages of my mother's life when she was no longer able to read due to severe macular degeneration. This treasure of a program is one of the most useful and beneficial services that our library system or any governmental service provides to its constituents. That is one reason why our family suggested donations to the Library as a fitting memorial to my mother.

I cannot praise you and your staff highly enough for their patience, responsiveness and dedication to the people they serve.
With deepest gratitude and appreciation for a job well done."
