Yes, I second the survey idea! Anyone of any age with less-than-great
vision can benefit from large print.
Anecdata: I've been using LP (and enlarging the print on my eReader) since
my mid-20s because it's comfortable to read without my glasses.

I am a retired librarian over 70. I read the same things I read all the
other decades of my life. Please don't think of seniors as "different".
Perhaps you could put out a survey near your large print books asking this
question and make it easy for users to request titles they're interested
in. I personally use a Nook and a Kindle because most LP books are too
heavy for reading in bed!

Hi all,
I have recently taken on the management of my library's large print
collection. It is about 1500 books. I am wondering what are senior
readers' favorite authors? I would like to freshen up the collection and
also keep some favorite as well. Thank you for your help.
