A Virtual Tour of South Carolina's Talking Books Program?

Today I had the great pleasure of getting a one-on-one tour from Pamela Davenport of South Carolina's Talking Books Program, which is housed in the State Library. The South Carolina State Library's Talking Book Services department provides informational and recreational reading materials in accessible formats. The program provides free recorded, Braille, large print and other library materials and resources to eligible South Carolinians of all ages.

equipment and how the recording studio works.
(This was very interesting!)


Overall, I really appreciated witnessing firsthand some of the great services our State Library's Talking Books Program offers. Thank you, Pamela!
