Electronic Ballot Marking System Available to Colorado Voters with Disabilities
In Colorado, people with disabilities, including the blind and print disabled, can mark their ballots using computers, smart phones, or tablets equipped with the assistive technology with which they are familiar. All that is needed is a computer, smart phone, or tablet, a printer, and an Internet connection.
CTBL has the detailed instructions, written by Curtis Chong, available on our website at: https://myctbl.cde.state.co.us/voting-rights
There are links to either an HTML or a PDF version of the document. If you would like a copy send via email, please contact the library at ctbl.info@cde.state.co.us requesting the voting document.
Voters should visit the website www.govotecolorado.com to update their voter registration information.
Building Closed to Public
As of Friday, March 20, the Colorado Talking Book Library will not be open for walk-in patrons. We will still be serving patrons through the mail. Please call, email or use our online catalog to order your books from us. If you are not already set-up to order through the online catalog, call so we can get a password set-up for you.
We have sent an extra cartridge to all of our patrons on an automated service to ensure they have extra books on hand in the event we do have to close down completely. Patrons may also call to request a higher number of books be placed on each cartridge if they go through a significant number of books.
Another option for patrons is to use our BARD download service. More information is located on our BARD page
Any questions or concerns, call us at 303-727-9277 or 1-800-685-2136 or send us an email at ctbl.info@cde.state.co.us
