Vibug's mission is;
- Exchange information and advice among visually impaired computer users.
- Expand computer literacy within the visually impaired community--especially the use of computers to overcome limitations of visual impairment.
To further these objectives, VIBUG is engaged in the following activities:
- Conducting monthly meetings on the second Saturday of the month at National Braille Press, (88 St. Stephen Street) in Boston. The highlight of each meeting is a demonstration of how a personal computer may be productively used with speech, braille, or large print output. A personal computer is especially useful to someone who is visually impaired or blind because it facilitates access to and analysis of diverse information with remarkable speed, accuracy, and convenience.
- Maintaining a tape library of these meetings to distribute to Vibug members and other interested persons.
