Services to print impaired people in relation to services to visually impaired people

In Croatian specialist libraries, services for visually impaired people are provided by the same organisations and from the same budget as services for print impaired people in specialist libraries. There is no difference between the standards specialist libraries for Visually Impaired People use when deciding if someone is a visuallyimpaired reader, and the standards to determine the number of visually-impaired people. The library does not expect many changes will happen to the relationship between services for visually impaired people and for print impaired people in Croatia over the next five years.
