> Dear Colleague,

>
> RFB&D is now able to offer free, first-year memberships to eligible 
> students
> who can take advantage of the downloadable digital audiobooks.  These
> memberships are funded through the U. S. Department of Education and 
> various
> private donors.
>
>
>
> The following conditions and procedures apply to these no-cost 
> memberships:
>
> 1. To utilize the AudioAccess downloadable audiobooks, the following
> technology needs to be available:  a computer with either Windows XP or
> Vista and Windows Media Player, a high-speed Internet connection, and a
> valid
>
> e-mail address.  Once an audiobook is downloaded, a member will then have
> the option of syncing the files from Windows Media Player into a 
> compatible
> MP3 player.
>
> 2. Students must be registered through the www.rfbd.org online
> registration system but will still need to have a disability certification
> form completed, signed, and forwarded to RFB&D Member Services in 
> Princeton.
> 3. AudioAccess-only members will not be able to order the AudioPlus CD
> versions of the audiobooks.  The free memberships provide access only to 
> the
> downloadable format.
>
>
>
> See attached Fact Sheet and Parent Letter for more details.  Although some
> students will not have the technology or ability to access the download
> format of the recordings, for certain students this is a wonderful
> opportunity, especially if the students are already using audiobooks at
> school and/or at home.
