AUDIO TAPES

HOW TO ORDER; return to Catalog Index page

Please Note: The items listed in this catalog are available only to those individuals who are visually impaired or whose handicap prevents them from using normal print. Also note that items marked with an asterisk (*) are not available for purchase. They are available on loan from the library only.

Except for a few items, the materials listed in this catalog are recorded in "Talking-Book" format. Talking-Books are recorded at 1/2 normal speed and on each of the 4 tracks separately. This permits the equivalent of 4 standard tapes to be recorded onto one Talking-Book tape.

T-B tapes require a special tape player; they will NOT play on a standard tape player. See "Recommendation" below.
The Bahá'í Service for the Blind does NOT provide or repair these players.

Recommendation: The National Library Service/Regional Library Services are no longer providing the special players mentioned above. The players are being replaced by a special Digital Cartridge player. The NLS is no longer producing books on cassette tape but only DTB (Digital Talking Books). The Baha'i Service for the Blind is currently engaged in converting its cassette tapes into DTB but this is a very long process. Unless you own a cassette player that will play the 4-track tapes, we do not recommend that you PURCHASE tapes from our catalog but only borrow them. We will sell them to you if you wish, but be aware that you may have difficulty obtaining equipment to play these tapes in the future.

Also many of our tapes can be listened to or downloaded on the web at: www.bahaistudy.org
