:: PRODUCTION ::
|
Audio books are
narrated and recorded in our own
studios, by teams of trained
volunteers and cover a wide range of
subjects. Recreational and
educational books both for adults
and children are produced in all 11
languages of South Africa. New
titles are added to our collection
at a rate of approximately 2000 per
year. Books are chosen by a book
selection committee and copyright
permission is obtained from
publishers and literary agents.
Great care is taken to match the
voice to the book - wherever
possible the voice is matched to the
content and style of the book. |

Recording is done in 27 sound-proof studios in
Durban, Cape Town, Johannesburg, Pretoria, Pietermaritzburg
and Mamelodi by teams of dedicated and trained
volunteers.

Volunteer teams
assist in the various stages needed
to produce accurate, well modulated
tapes, and a master tape is created.
The master tape
collection - which now numbers more
than 25 000 titles - is stored in
climatically controlled conditions,
so that a copy can be made whenever
necessary. Fast copying equipment
ensures that multiple copies of
taped books can be made on demand.
