Want to see a movie in a looped movie theatre?  Are you in Tucson?  All 3 screens at the Loft Cinema are looped! 

 

Arizona state law mandates that anyone who purchases hearing aids from an Arizona licensed hearing aid dispenser or audiologist MUST be told about the telecoil and the benefits of a manual telecoil. Here is a link to the Arizona "Telecoil Bill" and you also must also be told about our free telephone program.

 

Did you know that the Arizona State Capitol is completely looped?  Yes, it is true.  All legislator desks have inductive looping, as well as all visitor galleries and all public meeting rooms.  Arizona was the first state to loop all 3 areas of their state capitol.

 

The Tempe Public Library now has 2 looped rooms (Room A, a large meeting room, and the TLC, Tempe Learning Center)!
