Join the CNIB’s “Right to Read” Campaign
Visit http://www.cnib.ca/righttoread to join the campaign and help protect the right to read for those of us with visual disabilities.
Reading is a right, not a privilege. We read to learn, work and connect to the world. Everyone has the right to read.
But if you are blind or partially sighted, that right could go missing.
Library services for blind and partially sighted Canadians are in jeopardy. For more than 90 years, the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB) has struggled to fund these services with charitable dollars. But CNIB can’t afford to go it alone any longer.
Government funding is needed now, or the consequences will be dire: isolation and an unequal playing field for Canadians who deserve better.
