Welcome to BrailleAudio, "Where Blind People Read!"
BrailleAudio is an interdenominational Christian resource library consisting of books, teachings, and other materials in Braille and DAISY audio formats. We provide the material as downloadable files to our members:
- As accessible methods of reading for those who are blind, partially sighted, or otherwise print disabled, to build their Christian faith, growth, work, and witness;
- As an educational resource for those who want to learn more about the Christian faith; and
- As a home to those who simply like to read.
Spoken Word Ministries, Inc. Is Now a Member of the Accessible Books Consortium
The Accessible Books Consortium (ABC) is a public-private partnership led by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). It includes organizations that represent people with print disabilities such as the World Blind Union (WBU); libraries for the blind; standards bodies, and organizations representing authors, publishers and collective management organizations. Its goal is to increase the number of books worldwide in accessible formats - such as braille, audio, e-text, large print – and to make them available to people who are blind, have low vision or are otherwise print disabled.
In practical terms, BrailleAudio now has an additional source for obtaining accessible titles for you, our valued members, to read and be blessed by. Over time, we will be adding books produced by other member libraries, or authorized entities, of the ABC, including the National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled (NLS), American Printing House for the Blind (APH), and Vision Australia. Those titles will be part of the new ABC Collection
Please be assured that BrailleAudio will always try to put Jesus first in everything we do. We ask that you keep us in your prayers as we seek guidance from God as to what books to produce and how to make the best possible use of this new resource.
Thank you and God bless!
