Abstract: An auxiliary prescription label is provided for print-impaired individuals, such as blind and vision-impaired individuals. The auxiliary label is affixed to a prescription receptacle and does not permanently obscure the primary prescription label. The auxiliary label includes a book attached to a clip. The book is formed by a strip of printed material. The strip is folded to form the book and at least one stack of apertures is provided therethrough. The clip includes a base having at least one ear extending therefrom. The ear(s) are bent relative to the base to pass the ear(s) through the aperture(s), and the ear(s) are thereafter secured to the base. An adhesive secures the auxiliary label to the prescription receptacle.

Abstract: A hand held scanner having recording capabilities is provided. The invention comprises a scanner which reads bar codes, converts the codes to electrical signals, which are then relayed to a palm size data processing unit. The data processing unit contains signal synthesizing, memory, recording, playback and erasure means. The device has six operating modes: the identification or I.D. mode during which scanning takes place and an audible output is generated; memo mode during which data (some of which may not relate to a particular object) may be input into, deleted from or replayed by the device; search mode during which a sequentially audible listing of recorded information is played back; memory mode during which the amount of remaining available memory is audibly displayed; date/time mode during which the current day and time are audibly displayed; and help mode which contains a brief overview of the device's functions. A record button permits verbal input during the I.D. mode and memo mode.
