Library of Accessible Media for Pennsylvanians (LAMP)

Pennsylvania residents who are unable to read standard sized newsprint, unable to hold a book or turn pages, or who have a physically-based reading disability may be eligible for services through Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh's Library of Accessible Media for Pennsylvanians (LAMP).

LAMP provides a wide range of lendable resources at no cost to qualified patrons. Our print and electronic collections include:

• Large print books

• Audio described DVDs

• Audio books and magazines with playback equipment

• Physical Braille books, which can be borrowed via interlibrary loan through our partner the Free Library of Philadelphia’s Library for the Blind and Physically Handicapped

For more information or to download an application, visit their website at the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh or check back to their new website: MyLamp.org, which is currently under construction. Materials can be mailed, so don't let its location stop you from reaching out for yourself, friends or family members.
