Hi, Does anyone know of any other radio stations that have audio books except this one and one Word, in the UK?
Thanks, Imbar Why not subscribe to my list? don't want to conform to mainstream society? want to help people solve problems and maybe solve some of your own? [EMAIL PROTECTED] Imbar Golt Email and Messenger: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype: Imbargolt ----- Original Message ----- From: Kurt Edwin Yount To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 05, 2008 4:10 PM Subject: [LITS] audiobook radio news If anybody is interested it this go to www.audiobookradio.net This is an announcement I just got and I hope it is of interest to all. it is GMT so eight o'clock is 3 a.m. estern 2 a.m. central, 1 a.m. mountain and midnight here in the pacific time zone. I have nothing invested in this station but my enjoyment. They were changing it every monday morning and I hope they still are. The anouncement follows. Kurt Dear Kurt Yount, For the past few months, Audio Book Radio has been working closely with web accessibility specialists NOMENSA, here in the UK, in order to provide the best possible user-friendly service and access for our worldwide audience, particularly for blind and partially sighted people. We were certainly hoping to have the changes in place by now but these things do take time and we are determined to get it right. The upgrade does not come cheap - around 13k - but our fund raising plans are going well and we are discovering more and more organisations that not only recognise the potential of our station, but also the public service and entertainment we are already providing and aiming to improve upon. Special mention should be given to the RNIB and the British Computer Association of the Blind. Both have been generous in their praise of what we are trying to do and, once the upgrades are in place, both organisations are perfectly happy to introduce their membership to our station. As the site stands at the moment, that is simply not possible so it is vital we find the funding for the work to be carried out. That is also why we have added a donation button to the ABR website…every little bit of help really does make a difference. The upgrades will include everything from podcasts to a full-download facility for the entire schedule, so you can take ABR wherever you travel. There will also be a writer’s forum and we are looking into the idea of including a separate educational section for people who are learning English as a second language. We do receive enquiries from all over the world about this and we are very aware how the station can help in this regard. All of the above are very realistic and exciting developments for ABR but they do take a lot of planning and patience. We are getting there! THE FUTURE…A NEW STUDIO AND PRODUCTION HOUSE We receive a lot of great scripts from new writers and the production of such work is something we are looking to develop in the near future. Plans are in place for our own studios here in the UK and we are currently looking for a suitable base. This will enable us to liaise with many more creative individuals and writing organisations, which will in turn, allow us to produce many more new recordings for our audience to enjoy. Along with the customary single-reader audio titles, there will be many more original radio plays appearing on the station. AUDIO BOOK DOWNLOAD TITLES We are closing –out our ‘In Association’ deal with Simply Audio Books over the next few weeks and joining forces with Spoken Network. Their catalogue of titles is vast and includes every major publisher from BBC Worldwide to Harper Collins. This will mean that there will be more than 7,000 titles to choose from for download very soon on ABR. Every classic series you can think of right through to the very best in contemporary titles. www.spokennetwork.com Any listener that makes a donation towards the running costs of Audio Book Radio via PayPal on the website will be entitled to a 10% discount on any audio book download title from Spoken Network once the links are in place. Simply email us after making a donation to join our ABR Discount Club. Apologies for any inconvenience as we look to improve the station, but it will all be worth the wait. As ever, thanks for listening and thanks again for your support! All @ ABR. SCHEDULE CURRENTLY BROADCASTING ON ABR AS FOLLOWS… All times UK. 8.00am / pm: For Better or Worse by W.W.
