The Internet is a powerful tool that bridges millions of people all over the world to information, resources and online communities with the click of a mouse. Check out some of the online resources available to people with MS and their families and friends.

Lending Library
The chapter’s new-and-improved library now operates like an online shopping cart, similar to Amazon.com, which keeps materials coming to your door in a timely manner. The library contains books, DVDs, VHS tapes and audio tapes with accurate, current and comprehensive information for people with MS. An enhanced search engine allows you to browse materials by topic and by publication type. Materials will come right to your doorstep with pre-paid postage to return them when you are done. It’s like Netflix for the National MS Society. Go to the library.
