Sherwood Library - MagniSight Explorer

The Friends of the Sherwood Library are pleased to announce the gift of a magnifying reader, for the vision impaired, to the Sherwood Library.  The MagniSight Explorer was purchased through the collaborative efforts of the Sherwood Area Lions, the Ohio Lions Foundation and the Friends of the Sherwood Library.

Those who have difficulty reading printed material may now enjoy the many newspapers, magazines and books available at the library.  Some patrons may also wish to peruse the historical photo collection of local people, places and events or read the fine print on letters and legal documents. Library staff will help acquaint users with the easy to operate machine. The hours of the library are Monday and Wednesday, noon to 6 p.m.; Tuesday and Thursday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Friday and Saturday, 9 a.m. to 12 noon.
