Email Web Site Coordinator Check-It-Out (CIO) is a coordinated effort to loan assistive technology equipment to North Carolinians with disabilities, their families, and their service providers. The goal of this statewide network is to increase accessibility to adaptive devices by linking existing equipment loan programs via the World Wide Web. "Recreation" and "Toys" are included in the many categories provided for searching for available equipment. The North Carolina State Library The state library provides services for persons who are blind or have other disabilities that impair reading ability. The same book and magazine titles found in any other public library are available for loan. However, instead of being printed in regular-sized print, they are recorded on long-playing records and cassette tapes, and produced in grade 2 braille or large type. Readers are also loaned special tape and record players. There are books and magazines for all ages and all reading interests; catalogs listing available titles are sent to each reader.
