From: Kevin Smalley Sent: Friday, April 20, 2007 3:14 PM To: list serve Subject: [Nfbc-info] Digital Talking Books from N LS
Hello Californians:
I am forwarding on the following letter from Dr. Maurer. Action is needed to prevent the blockage of talking books being put into digital format. The Library of Congress has a plan to make digital talking book machines available in 2008. This new format is destined to replace outdated cassette cassette machines, and even the CDmachines, and even the CD, which is nearing the end of its innovation. Following the letter is a list of Senators or Representatives serving on subcommittees who need to be contacted regarding the necessity of such a service. Please refer to Dr. Maurer's letter for more information:
Cordially,
Marc Maurer,President
