State Library of Iowa News - SW Large Print Rotation

Schools and Libraries

August 24, 2023

From: State Library of Iowa

The current Large Print Rotation will wrap up on October 1st. If you would like to join us for the next rotation please email Carrie Falk for information or join us during SW Open Office Hours hosted by Misty Gray on Wednesday, September 13th at 10AM for a question and answer session. 

Here's how the rotation works: participating libraries will provide 10 large print titles that have been published within the last 4 years. All participating libraries will send their collection of books to the next library on the list and each quarter you will receive an email reminder to package up the collection at your library and pass them on to the next participating library. This means you will have 10 "new to you" large print titles for your patrons to check out every three months. Currently we have 17 libraries participating in the rotation which means you will have 3+ years of new titles coming your way. Please visit the website to see how it all works and visit the Guidelines tab (the copyright date information is a little out of date as it pertains to the rotation that started in 2021). It can be a little confusing at first so please don't hesitate to call (712-246-2315) or email Carrie Falk with any questions.
