Audio Books

Audio books are recordings of spoken words rather than music. By definition, they are not necessarily simply an audio version of a book. The term is used to describe the aural format of the words rather than a version of text.

For the visually impaired, audio books provide a way to listen to the text. They are also useful for other individuals who may have no problem seeing text but experience difficulty holding a book or turning its pages.

Audio books may also be useful to those learning to read. This is helpful for both beginners and advanced readers. A beginner can be focused on developing basic skills, while a more practiced reader may be interested in picking up new vocabulary with correct pronunciation.
