Who is Eligible to Download Newsweek and Reader's Digest in DTB Format?

Patrons of the National Library Service (NLS) are eligible to download Reader's Digest and Newsweek in Digital Talking Book (DTB) format. If you are not a patron, visit the NLS website at http://www.loc.gov/nls and follow the instructions there.

What Player is Needed?

To play downloadable magazines, you must have a Digital Talking Book player that has been authorized by NLS. In addition, you must have a computer from which to download the magazines.

Computers and commercial mp3 players will not play these magazines. The magazines are encrypted to protect the content from unauthorized use.

If you are using the NLS player, you must also have either a flash drive or a blank NLS cartridge and a cable to connect that cartridge to the computer. (Both blank cartridges<https://shop.aph.org/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_Digital%20Talking%20Book%20Cartridge_1-02610-00P_10001_11051> and cables<https://shop.aph.org/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_cables%20connectors%20extension%20electronics%20flash%20drive%20thumb%20removable%20memory%20storage%20digital%20talking%20book%20dtb%20dtbc%20audio%20audible%20National%20Library%20Service%20for%20the%20Blind%20and%20Physically%20Handicapped%20NLS%20BARD%20reading%20Digital%20Talking%20Book%20Cartridge_1-02612-00P_10001_11051> are available from APH.) Note that you cannot copy files to the cartridges you receive in the mail from NLS; you must purchase a writable cartridge.
