How Do I?
A video magnifier with a movable table can help you read documents, photos, medications, and other materials.
How does it work? When you place an item onto the table, the camera projects the item onto the screen. Three brightly coloured dials allow you to control and choose the magnification and brightness levels, as well as the colour filter that best suits your vision needs.
Instructions are provided at the station. Please ask staff for assistance, if needed.
The magnifier is available for anyone to use at no cost on a first-come, first-served basis during opening hours. Anyone may use the magnifier for up to two hours at a time.
If you have any questions about using our new magnifier, please call our Queen’s Square location at 519-621-0460.
