Description

In this episode, we turn our attention to the charitable sector of publishing in a discussion with Dave Williams, spokesperson for the Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB). This charity supports people with sight loss in the UK and today’s show primarily focuses on their audiobook service, Talking Books. We track its long history of supporting its users in accessing reading materials, the 21st century technology employed, and the parameters for creating inclusive content.Dave WilliamsTwitter: @RNIBLibraryWebsite: https://www.rnib.org.uk/Contact: Helpline@rnib.org / 0303 123 9999Mentioned in this episodeDolphin Easy Reader App https://yourdolphin.com/EasyReader-App RNIB Bookshare https://www.rnibbookshare.org/cms/ClearVision Charity http://www.clearvisionproject.org/UK Association for Accessible Formats https://www.ukaaf.org/Hosted, edited, and produced by Siobhan ‘Shiv’ Humphries (SYP UK Podcast Officer)Twitter: @SYP_UK Website: https://thesyp.org.uk/ If you have any questions about this episode, or wish to partake in the show then drop us a line at: podcast.syp@gmail.com
