Audio Books For The Blind
AudioBooksfortheBlind.net Hearing a record through audio books can be a rich and textured experience especially for the blind. Here is my promise ...
Why are audio books so expensive? Blind people are not necessarily rich!?
My mother is blind and the authors she likes are not always the most well-liked. Getting audio books for her can cost a fortune.
Possibly you could subscribe to an online program. Often they will have MP3 audio books and all you have to do is pay a small fee for joining the site. Also, some libraries have all of their audio books online. Check your local library for dope on how to get them! A nice gift idea might be for you and some friends to record the books to audiotape on your own. You could either read the whole thing yourself, or have a different person for each role in the book.
Anyone can bum audio books from the library, at very reasonable cost.
it's because there isn't enough need for them and because not only do they need the rights to the book but recording them can take a while and cost a lot. i'm sorry though :( try looking at your library, i often get audio books to listen too from mine.

They are high-priced to produce, and the market is limited, therefore a small number of consumers share the entire cost.
I haven't yet seen a catholic library that didn't have an audiobook/book cd collection. Try yours. When you have heard them all, ask about inter-library loan. They will borrow items from other libraries for you, normally for free.
When you are at the library, ask about books for the blind. Your mother may be able to get her "reading materials" in the mail at no cost.

This is a liberal organisation. Have a look.
I hope this helps.

I concur 100%. My girlfriend is blind and I hate that books cost so much for her to own.
The library idea is a good one, but only if your library's selection is up-to-date. Our resident library still has most audiobooks on cassette and films on VHS.
There was once a rental place here that operated along the lines of Blockbuster, where you'd rent audiobooks for so many days like a film over. My family used to go there a lot because my dad used to travel for work and would listen to books. The place closed a few years ago. No idea why, though. :(

Corporate close-fistedness!
The people who relate the books are often famous, and they want to be paid. Also, audio books are a rip off.

Also, some libraries have all of their audio books online. Check your local library for information on how to get them! A nice gift thought might be for you and some friends to record the books to audiotape on your own. You could either read the whole thing yourself, or have a different person for each character in the book.
My first design was recording for the blind, but it appears they're primary mission is to provide textbooks.
I looked at some other sites because you'd think someone out there would be able to proposal services without charging big bucks. The first site was a short article and it connected to the second site, the audio book bible. The last is another scheme.
Hope some of this helps.

The RNIB contribute a talking book service and most local libraries do not charge registered blind people for borrowing audiobooks, only sighted people.

Did you try using a overflow site?
Hope I helped!

Hello. Both my in-laws went blind and they got taped books for unceremonious - there was an enormous range. I work at a care home for people who suffer from Alzheimers, and a couple of them are also blind. They get talking books from the library and also from the website for talking books, and from the RNIB. Ill-starred I am so useless at supplying phone numbers etc but I will look into it further and get back to you. This is NOT charity but I would be pleased to send your mother an audio book as a register.
Best wishes, Barry.

what mp3 player is good for audio books and blind people can use.
what mp3 athlete can blind people use?
Blind people can use all mp3 players.
why do audio books cost more than regular books, why do the blind have to pay more?
is this discernment?
They don't have to pay anything...they can stoppage them out at the library for free.
Where can I get the audio book "The Blind Assassin" by Margaret Attwood for free?
Where can I get the audio laws "The Blind Assassin" by Margaret Attwood for free? I am desperately looking for this book, as it is very thick. I will be really glad if someone does find me the book.
yes i tried the library and they have it on order which will take months!!
The library!!! Try there first. If they dont have it... then I am unsure where you can get it for without cost or obligation... but you can try Barns and Noble online where they have a huge collection of used book on tape and you can get it at a huge diminish. Good luck hun.
Audio-books in Hungarian (not language course) for my blind Hungarian grandma?
I am searching Hungarian audio-books, for my grandma, who is Hungarian and is turning blind. I would like to get her some engaging and upbeat books recorded on tape, CD or MP3. Any help where I could purchase or get this would be appreciated.
A Google search for "hangos könyv" (audio order) turned up several possibilities, the most promising of which is:
http://www.hangoskonyvek.hu/catalog/index.php
Unfortunately, I don't see any provision for international shipping, so you'll call to stick with the downloadable books (letölthető könyvek), most of which are available as either iPod format or MP3. They also don't appear to have an English-language variation of their page, so if you don't read Hungarian, you'll need to find someone who does to use the site.
There's also the Magyar Elekronikus Könyvtár (Hungarian Electronic Library), a help of the Szechenyi Library (which is kinda the Hungarian equivalent of the Library of Congress), which offers free MP3s of non- or post-copyright hogwash:
http://mek.oszk.hu/keresesek/keresesf.phtml?formatum=MP3
There's everything from ethnographers' recordings of people's dialects to Kafka and Homer. For something buoyant, try Tóth Béla: A magyar anekdotakincs (Treasury of Hungarian Anekdotes):
http://mek.oszk.hu/02600/02671/
Hope this helps you get started, and my first wishes to your grandmother.
