Greetings,
I hope this e-mail finds you well. My name is Aisling Redican, I am the Coordinator of Communications and Fundraising here at Xavier Society for the Blind. I’m not sure if you heard, but we recently converted our audio library to Digital Talking Book format, and we are wondering if you could help us spread the good news? We hope to serve many more people now that our audio books are compatible with the talking book machines provided by the National Library Service. A listing of our newest talking book titles can be found on our website.
To that end, would you be willing to put something similar to the following in your publications and/or on your social media regarding Xavier Society for the Blind’s transition to DTB format?
Xavier Society for the Blind is pleased to announce that our conversion to digital talking book format is now complete and we have added some popular titles on cartridge to our library! These books can be played on the talking book machines provided by the National Library Service. With an existing catalog of over 1,500 braille and audio titles, Xavier Society for the Blind provides inspirational, spiritual and religious reading materials in braille and audio to the blind and visually impaired community of faithful free of charge. One of our primary objectives is to choose new titles which will appeal to a larger audience and we hope that the combination of more appealing titles and the digital talking book format will allow us to reach many more people. Adding titles in Spanish is a key objective as well. For more information, including how to register for our materials, please visit our website xaviersocietyfortheblind.org or call us at 800-637-9193. We look forward to serving many more patrons in new and innovative ways!
We appreciate any help you can provide. If you need any more information please do not hesitate to contact me!
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
Aisling Redican
