Due to severe budget cuts we had to envoke the assistence of
In-Touch Networks to keep the radio reading service going except
for the local papers.  I'm not saying that's the best way but it
is themost cost effective.  My salary comes from the other
program I'm running thus no salary for the director of Radio
Reading, the readers are volunteers, and it all solved my
bosses's problem of financing.  Again I didn't say that's the
best way but right now it is the only way for us.  We have
received our usual couple of grants that we depend on each year
and I've been able to put money into sorely needed equipment.  I
think we will be able to go one more year that way the way
thenew budget is shaping up.  Grant
