The Berkshire Chapter Of Recording For The Blind & Dyslexic Introduces Downloadable Audio Textbooks10:49AM / Monday, September 08, 2008
For 60 years Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic (RFB&D) has produced audio textbooks proven to boost student performance in reading and comprehension, while also boosting independence and self-confidence. Over time, the original practice of recording books onto phonographs eventually gave way to reel-to-reel technology, cassette tapes and finally compact discs.
Now, with the new AudioAccess, RFB&D members and their schools can simply download thousands of RFB&D audiotexts onto a compatible media player. All students need to install the software is Microsoft Windows XP or Vista, high-speed Internet, and a compatible portable media player. Gaining access to the largest library of unabridged audio textbooks and literature in the United States just got a whole lot easier!
Join RFB&D and try new AudioAccess today - the benefits go beyond words.
For information about AudioAccess, please contact Cyd Melcher at (413) 464-2655 or cmelcher@rfbd.org
Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic (RFB&D) is a national nonprofit organization whose volunteers read and record textbooks and other educational materials for students who have visual, learning, and physical disabilities. Locally, almost 200 people volunteer their time in the Lenox and Williamstown studios. The recorded texts are used by over 10,000 students of all ages throughout Massachusetts.
