Jerry Swerdlick of EVAS will be discussing the new 
Scan-Read-Magnify System on Tek Talk Monday, May 11.  
Manufactured and designed by EVAS, the Scan-Read-Magnify System 
provides access to documents, books, newspapers and magazines for 
people who are blind or have low vision.  EVAS has provided 
assistive technology for people with disabilities since 1979 and 
is a pioneer in computer-based solutions.  EVAS' goal in 
designing the SRM was to create a feature rich system at an 
exceptional price using its experience and manufacturing 
capabilities.
