Summer is a great time to listen to, touch and read books, as well as to visit your public library.  CELA offers books in a variety of accessible formats such as DAISY audio and braille. Bookshare titles are also available in audio and braille, but also offer more e-book formats that display the words on the screen such as in DAISY text, Epub and Word.  Many CELA patrons will be able to access books from Bookshare, but some will be required to submit a completed Proof of Disability form and email it to members@celalibrary.ca.  Please note that libraries who access books on behalf of their patrons with print disabilities will only be able to order CELA titles.

Find CELA member libraries in BC.

For information about our formats and the reading apps and devices used to read them, visit our Help page.
