GOOD NEWS!

Now, using NFB-NEWSLINE®, blind and physically impaired people have unprecedented access to hundreds of newspapers and magazines for FREE, just by picking up a phone or by visiting a secure Web site. Using this innovative service people who would otherwise not be able to read a newspaper can access, at any time and at any place, the same essential and entertaining news that their neighbors, classmates, and colleagues enjoy. Subscribers to NFB-NEWSLINE® have unlimited access to over 275 newspapers and magazines (five of which are Spanish-language), including the following:

Three local newspapers
The Oregonian
The Register-Guard Eugene
Salem Statesman Journal

Additionally, NFB-NEWSLINE® subscribers have access to their local TV listings, and can listen to information about statewide agencies and organizations.
Subscribers can also choose to have their favorite publications downloaded onto their Victor Reader Stream, or to visit www.nfbnewslineonline.org and read text-only versions of the publication on a secure Web site.

To be eligible, you must be legally blind or have a physical or a learning disability that prevents you from reading the paper independently. Your eligibility is not dependent on, or restricted to, affiliation with any particular consumer or support organization; the only thing that matters is that you cannot read the newspaper. If you are signed up for the National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped, you already qualify for NFB-NEWSLINE®!
