Hiram G. Andrews Center

 

The Office for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, PARID and its local chapters, and individuals have done an outstanding job of collecting OVER 400 TITLES on the topic of Deafness, loss of hearing, and INTERPRETING. This collection is now available for loan through the Pennsylvania Access PA System. To borrow a title, search online for the title you wish to borrow, then print or write down the Library name (Hiram G. Andrews) and the title and call number. Go to your local library’s interlibrary loan department and ask them to request the material. There is no charge for this service. ALL the study materials for the CI/CT, CDI & NCI tests are available—including the practice DVDs for the new NIC Interview and performance tests.

The PARID website has a tutorial on how to use the system—look on the Professional Development page.

To see (and search) the full collection go to www.library.parid.org.
