A senior citizen who is trying to get her life back after several hard months of dealing with macular degeneration and almost losing the vision in one eye, has finally gotten new glasses and is starting to do hardanger embroidery again. She queried 3 of us about how to do some difficult stitches and we ordered several hardanger books. The stitches weren't in them, so we did further research and placed ILLs for a video and book. In the meantime we also searched Internet and found diagrams for the stitches. She is happy that now she can keep working on her favorite project in spite of not being able to see it very well. In getting to know her over the years, she is a tenacious person and will not give up until she has accomplished her goal, and we are happy to have played a small part in that accomplishment.
