SIZE DOES MATTER

-

AFTER receiving my new phone book yesterday, I was amazed to realise just how much it has shrunk over the years. Realising that most of us use computers or phones to find names now, I accepted that the phone book must still be helpful to the elderly and less confident in technology. On opening the book, the minuscule print would be very challengin­g for even the best sighted older Tasmanians. Would it cost too much to increase the font size and keep those who rely on it happy and less frustrated?
