Download Your RFB&D Audio Textbooks With New AudioAccessSM
This exciting new choice allows members to directly download RFB&D audiobooks—yet another way to help build reading confidence, independence and success
AudioAccessSM is an exciting new choice that enables members to download RFB&D® audiobooks directly to a Microsoft Windows®-compatible computer—and sync them with a compatible portable media player.
With AudioAccess, members can download all the audio textbooks and literature they need for an entire year. And, by syncing the downloaded audio textbooks to a portable media player, they can take them wherever they travel. Now, it will be easier for RFB&D members to use books at school, at home and on the go.
Audio textbooks available through AudioAccess provide the same high-quality sound production for an excellent listening experience and are completely unabridged, just like AudioPlus® books. Members also have access to the same great choice of titles from the largest library of audio textbooks and literature in the U.S.
Now AudioAccess joins AudioPlus books on CD as another great choice from RFB&D. Members can choose a combination of services that they prefer, all included in their Learning Through Listening® membership.
Here are some other important details about our service.
- AudioAccess is fast and easy to use
- No specialized playback equipment is required
- Most people already have everything that's needed, including:
- Microsoft® Windows XP or Vista
- High-speed Internet connection
- Compatible media player with common functionality requirements, such as a Microsoft Windows Media Player, version 10 or higher. (RFB&D audio textbooks are not compatible with Apple® Macintosh computers and iPods at this time.)
Members who are blind or visually impaired and are familiar with Windows Media Player, versions 10 or higher, can use the integrated screen reader to listen to the AudioAccess library catalog and then apply JAWS scripts to automate the ordering, downloading and syncing processes.
The only other item required is our software, RFB&D Download Manager, which can be installed easily. Our 24/7 Technical Support Team is available if assistance is needed.
Once installed on the computer, RFB&D Download Manager takes care of everything. It creates and labels each book page as a separate audio file for easy identification. RFB&D Download Manager organizes the files on the computer. Members can choose to download an entire book or only sections of a book at a time.
AudioAccess works in the same way as a commercial book-selling website. All RFB&D members have to do is log on to the RFB&D catalog website and select the titles they want. The site prompts members through the ordering process every step of the way.
RFB&D provides technical support for our members. RFB&D Outreach Staff are available for on-site technical help and our Technical Support Team is on hand 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
