Join us on November 6 as we talk about some mainstream e-book apps that offer a great selection and lots of accessibility. We are, of course, going to talk about Audible, the leading source of audiobooks read by great human voices, but we’re also diving into Kindle. Kindle books are text, so your screen reader can handle them well. Finally, we’re going to introduce you to a new favourite –Libby! Libby offers a great selection of audiobooks and text books, all for free through your public library. Join us to find out how we use these apps to enjoy our favourite stories!
