A suggested script — adapt it to your situation:
Hi, I'm calling to ask about services for people with disabilities.
My name is [your name], and I'm interested in the Accessible Library Materials and Reader Support program.
I wanted to ask whether there are any requirements I should know about, such as Washtenaw County residents with visual, physical, or print disabilities affecting reading access?
I also wanted to confirm your current hours. I see Library service hours vary; call or check online for current details. Is that still accurate?
And just to confirm — is this service free of charge?
What is the best way to get started? I see call or email the program to ask about eligibility and accessible-format services.
Thank you so much for your help.
Always introduce yourself and ask to speak with someone who can help with your specific need.
