Large Print Collection

Large print books are available via interlibrary loan from your public library.

The large print collection is housed in the Talking Books section of the NHSL and was funded, in part, by the Institute of Museum and Library Services, American Rescue Plan Act funds from 2021.

Large Print Titles New to the NHSL Collection  

In addition to borrowing individual titles via ILL, NH Public Libraries may request a set of LP books to display in their library for their patrons to borrow.

• You can have 30-ish titles at a time (what will fit into 2 boxes)
• You will select the titles you want from a spreadsheet of available titles
• You can borrow the collection for 2 months at a time, with up to 2 renewals
• You are expected to display the collection--not just interfile it with your LP collection
• You will need to keep track of the circulations of the individual NHSL LP titles while you have them and report this information when you return the collection
• The collection needs to come back to NHSL as a set, in the boxes we sent it in
• To request a current list of available titles contact Mary Russell

Hampstead Public Library created a promotional poster for the collection and a collection sign which you are welcome to use to display the collection.
