Text Enlarger

The Downtown Library has a text enlarger, called a Telesensory Aladdin Apex Pro. The text enlarger will help people with limited vision to magnify print or writing. It is easy to use. No reservations are required.

The Aladdin Apex Pro 20" screen enlarger will:

• display and enlarge text from books, periodicals, letters, pill bottles, coins and other print sources
• change background and foreground colors of text or images to assist people in reading or writing
• allow a person to use horizontal or vertical lines or mask portions of text

Patrons may contact Telephone Information at (831) 427-7713 or email us for more information about the equipment or to set up an appointment with staff for assistance.
