I wanted to give a quick update concerning the Senate's Legislative Branch Appropriations bill. At this time it is expected that this peace of legislation that will fund the Digital Talking Book Program at NLS will be held over for consideration until September. We will continue to monitor this situation which will provide more time for individuals to influence the legislative process.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns regarding this matter.
