Abstract: The visually impaired are very important to library services. However, due to deficiency in terms of resources and technology, currently, mainly visually impaired adults who have mastered certain reading techniques, particularly braille, are served by libraries, and visually impaired children are usually neglected. Based on the practices carried out by the author’s library, this paper studies the issue of helping visually impaired children use picture books, giving some suggestions on the strategies of accessible services of picture books by public libraries.
