Considering the unique nature of deafblindness, and the fact that it is a low incidence disability, the staff of OCDBE understand that it can feel difficult finding the right materials to meet your resource needs. This is why we are pleased to offer families and service providers an extensive collection of some of the field’s most recognized resources through our OCDBE Lending Library. Materials include print items such as books and manuals, as well as audiovisual materials like DVDs and VHS tapes, and can be checked out for up to a 30-day period.
