A Unique System in West Virginia Geared Toward People with Disabilities!


As my final virtual library tour in 2018, I found this program to be inventive and especially useful for those who can’t get around as much as everyone else.  

Here’s a great idea!  This program is geared toward people with disabilities and loans, not only library materials, but equipment to see if it will work with their lifestyles.  Thanks West Virginia!

Welcome to the West Virginia Assistive Technology System (WVATS) Virtual Loan Library
Loan programs allow people with disabilities to borrow equipment and try it in their natural environments (home, school, workplace, etc.) to help them in making a better decision as to whether the product and its features will be useful to them.

The WVATS Virtual Loan Library system lets users:
·  Borrow devices to try
·  See devices available for demonstration
·  Find used devices for free or low-cost
·  Sell used devices
·  Give away devices
·  Place want ads for devices you need
