Recordings for the Blind & Dyslexic Visiting GE&P on May 11, 2009
For the past 60 years, Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic (RFB&D) has been providing audio books for students who cannot read standard print because of a learning, visual or other physical disability. The organization has a vast library of over 46,000 titles, including textbooks and other literature for students of all ages.
On May 11th, Elizabeth Hess, the Educational Outreach Director of RFB&D, will make two presentations for area parents, teachers and school administrators describing RFB&D’s new AudioAccess™ feature. The presentations will be held in both GE&P offices.
AudioAccess™ allows RFB&D members to easily and inexpensively download audio book files to a computer. The books can be played at the computer or on a compatible Mp3 player.
To learn more about RFB&D, visit their website at www.rfbd.org or contact Elizabeth Hess at (203) 624-4334, ext. 307. RSVPs for the presentation should be sent to Nancy Grejtak, Director of Special Education Services at Greenwich Education and Prep, at ngrejtak@greenwichedprep.com.
