Would you like a newspaper with your morning cup of coffee?
NFB-NEWSLINE® added its 200th newspaper in 2005 AND it's still growing.
Four Spanish-language newspapers are now available to all subscribers.
View the entire list of all our available participating newspapers and
magazines. The service handles thousands of phone calls each day for individuals
across the country who now access daily newspapers and magazines as never
before. The toll-free centralized call-in center provides service on demand
to any subscriber. This also enables those who cannot read conventional
print to have access to all content offered on NFB-NEWSLINE® when
traveling throughout the United States twenty-four hours a day, seven
days a week.
Every day, a subscriber can choose that day's, the previous day's, or
the previous Sunday's issue of any newspaper in the service. On NFB-NEWSLINE®,
the user can easily choose which newspaper, section, and article to read
using a standard touch-tone telephone. The menu provided allows the user
to change the speed and voice quality, spell out words, or search for
a particular word or subject.
NFB-NEWSLINE® now offers more choices than ever, including special
local channels to distribute announcements of specific interest to the
blind.
