Other materials and services are also available for those with difficulty reading standard print. The new equipment is housed in special work corrals on the library's first floor. Lions President Tom Kryger told The Daily Herald, "... it couldn't fit any better with what the Lions are supposed to be doing."

GONE 1
GONE 1 is a non-compete networking group that consists of 21 members representing all different types of industries. They meet every Thursday morning from 7:30am to 9am at the Belvedere Banquets in Elk Grove Village. Each morning members review weekly referral and transaction reports with each other and discuss successful business practices all while enjoying breakfast. The primary goal of GONE 1 is to help your business grow. In 2012, GONE 1 had 332 transactions totaling $7,385,715 in revenue. Over the years, GONE 1 has helped fuse long lasting referral partners and created true friendships outside of the business realm. Some of the original members, dating back over 20 years, are still with the group. We encourage anyone to come and visit one of our meetings and are always looking to add more members. If you are interested in learning more about this group, please email Larry Greenwald at lgreenwald@insres.com.
