We have a new addition to our Library of Things!
The C-PEN ReaderPen is a portable scanning pen that reads printed text out loud using an embedded camera, a real-time optical character recognition (OCR) and natural voice text to speech (TTS). C-PEN ReaderPen is designed to assist those with reading challenges such as dyslexia, or those learning to read in English, French or Spanish.
How to borrow:
C-Pen ReaderPens can be borrowed for up to 3 weeks. You can place them on hold and choose to pick them up at any Barrie Public Library location. Limit of two “Library of Things” items per card holder.
How to return:
C-Pen ReaderPens can be returned to any Barrie Public Library location during library hours of operation.
