Social Services Kiosk
The Georgia Department of Human Services (DHS) and Georgia Public Library Service (GPLS) are partnering to provide free self-service benefits kiosks at Georgia public libraries.
​
The kiosks provide convenient access for the public to access Georgia Gateway, the state’s integrated eligibility system, to review, change, or renew their benefits including Medicaid; PeachCare for Kids®; Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP); Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF); Childcare and Parent Services (CAPS); and Women, Infants, and Children (WIC).
The self-service kiosks will reduce wait times and provide access at the point of need, helping benefits-eligible Georgians to maintain their own and their family’s coverage.
GLS Accessibility Tools
Are you or someone you know print impaired? That means you can’t see well enough to read standard print, hold a book, or turn the pages of a book. If so, use library resources to help with day-to-day chores.
A hand-held digital magnifier can be used over reading material and has adjustable screen magnification to suit individual needs. Computer access can be easier with our high contrast keyboards set up in the computer area to make typing easier.
The video magnifier, also set up in the computer area, enlarges print that is too small to read and puts it directly onto a computer screen. It’s great for books, magazines, newspapers and more.
Check with the Front Desk staff to use these tools.
