A Special Present on their 150th Anniversary: American Printing House for the Blind
January 23, 2008
On January 23, 1858, the American Printing House for the Blind (APH)was founded in the basement of the Kentucky School for the Blind. In 1879, the federal government designated APH as the official source of textbooks and aids for blind and visually impaired students across America. They continue to hold this designation today. Exactly 150 years later to the day, APH has adopted Firebrand's Title Management Solutions and Ecommerce Solutions as the backbone of their federally mandated service to provide the authoritative, comprehensive source of all accessible materials for blind and vision impaired students in the country. Known as the Louis website, the Title Management/Ecommerce solution will serve up more than a quarter million titles on a new website designed to be accessible to blind and vision impaired web visitors.
