Presented is TESTLAB project funded partially (50%) by European Commission. The experiments were set up in Great Britain, the Netherlands, Italy, Austria, and Greece. The general objective of TESTLAB was to carry out practical trials using telematics systems designed to provide visually impaired readers with improved access to library (public and academic libraries in particular) catalogs and documentation. The countries contributions to the project are discussed. TESTLAB experience convinced that using the public and academic libraries by the visually impaired enables the libraries to broaden their service base and user audience. Besides, the traditional libraries for the blind will also benefit from the processes owing to greater cooperation and wider use of electronic access and documentation.
