Free Digital Talking Book Machines

Are you unable to read or use standard print materials as a result of a temporary or permanent visual or physical limitation?

The National Library Service for the Blind & Physically Handicapped has developed new digital technology which allows readers to navigate easily through books and provide a superior reading experience. The compact Digital Talking Book Player and Cartridge is more compact, lighter and sturdier than the original Cassette Player and audio cassettes.

Any resident of the United States or American citizen living abroad who is unable to read or use standard print materials as a result of a temporary or permanent visual or physical limitation may receive service. An application for the free library service may be obtained by calling Long Island Talking Book Library at 1-866-833-1122 or the the Adult Reference Desk or by downloading a copy from the NLS web site.
