Audio Internet Reading Service of Los Angeles
AIRSLA is a volunteer-based internet service designed to serve blind and print-impaired individuals. Originally located in Los Angeles, California, we provide our listeners with accessible information and entertainment.
Here’s how AIRSLA aims to achieve this:
• Comprehensive Information: AIRSLA will broadcast news, current events, and lifestyle information relevant to the community, including details about restaurants, transportation, and locale.
• Vision Research Updates: AIRSLA will collaborate with organizations for the blind and visually impaired to share the latest research on vision loss.
• Engaging Programming: AIRSLA will offer a diverse range of programs, including readings of newspapers, magazines, and other print media, as well as entertainment tailored to both adults and children. Listener feedback will be actively sought to ensure programming meets the needs and interests of the audience.
• Interactive Guest Interviews: AIRSLA will feature guests who are blind, print-impaired, or experts on topics relevant to the community. Listeners will have opportunities to interact with these guests.
• Accessible through the Internet: AIRSLA will utilize internet broadcasting and podcasting to reach a wide audience and provide on-demand access to programs. This eliminates the limitations of traditional subcarrier signals, which require specialized equipment and restrict listening to the time of the original broadcast.
Ultimately, AIRSLA’s goal is to become an essential resource for the blind and print-impaired community by:
• Removing barriers to information and participation in community life.
• Providing a platform for connection and interaction.
• Offering a diverse range of programming that meets the needs and interests of its audience.
• Utilizing technology to maximize accessibility and convenience.
By fostering a strong relationship with its listeners, AIRSLA aims to create a valuable and indispensable service for the blind and print-impaired community.
