Radio Lives!

Radio still remains one of America's favorite pastimes and it's very convenient because you can listen in the car, while you work or do housework. Tune in to your local public radio station for a variety of the most fascinating subjects from world news, local news and music to art, film, politics and story telling.

Chicago Radio Information Service, Inc. (CRIS) is the eyes of Chicagoland. They provide verbatim readings of newspaper and magazine information 24 hours a day, seven days a week from all daily Chicago papers (including a weekly Spanish paper). Featured are job ads, radio dramas, sports, TV listings, and articles from popular magazines. A dial-in service lets listeners call in to make selections. You must have a special radio to pick up the CRIS sub-frequency, but one is provided free of charge to any listener with a visual impairment or blindness. Call (312) 541-8400 for more information.
