Why The Accessibility Of Reading Matters To Us, And Why It Should Absolutely Matter To You

With libraries in the U.S. currently under threat, the women of Book Bistro thought it was important to talk about the accessibility of reading and how it has evolved over the years. Join Shannon, Meka, Stacy, Shan, and Kristin for this timely discussion. The focus is on reading through the lens of blindness, but there’s something here for everyone who loves to read. Parts of it are funny, parts of it are poignant, and all of it focuses on the importance of books and the institutions that help make them available to us all.You can always contact the Book Bistro team by searching @BookBistroPodcast on facebook, or visiting:https://www.facebook.com/BookBistroPodcast/You can also send an email to:TheBookBistroPodcast@gmail.comFor more information on the podcast and the team behind it, please visit:https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/book-bistro
