📚 New Read On - The Audiobook Show is out!
From the phonautograph to a smart speaker, today we explore the history of 90 years of RNIB Talking Books recording (and the equipment used).
We also take a 169-year-trek through the history of recording the human voice.

Title Slide for Video, "Connected by Stories: The Journey of a Talking Book" from the State Library of Kansas Talking Books team.
A man in dark sunglasses stands at his mailbox with a Talking Book delivery in his hands. He says, "Oh YEAH! A Book!"
Oh YEAH! A Book! Wonder how #TalkingBooks find you? From a quiet recording studio to your mailbox, every Talking Book carries more than a story. It carries independence. Access. Community. Watch the journey; see how we’re all Connected by Stories. bit.ly/TalkingBooks... #Kansas

I’m talking about the one book that, if found, explains exactly who you were and how you saw the world. What’s the title? 📖✨
