Do you enjoy reading? Do you like reading out loud? WSIU Radio is looking for volunteer readers for the Southern Illinois Radio Information Service (SIRIS), our reading information service for individuals with visual impairments.

Content includes readings of newspapers, books, and more.

If your time is limited, you can easily be a remote reader by making recordings at home on your own computer or on your smartphone and then sending the file to us. To learn more, contact Kevin Boucher at kevin.boucher@wsiu.org or call (618) 453-4348.

WSIU and the Carbondale Library hosted a free Indie Lens Pop-Up screening and discussion of the Independent Lens film Dawnland at the library on Sunday, October 14.

Twenty people attended the screening, which was moderated via videoconference by Mishy Lesser, Ed.D., Learning Director for the Upstander Project and Education Fellow at the University of Connecticut. Guests said they gained insight about Native peoples and learned valuable lessons on how people should relate to one another. “Being a neighbor means sharing community and culture,” said one guest, while another commented,“Being a neighbor means to treat others how I want to be treated, to be of service to fellow human beings.”
