Yes, There are loads of free bibles, both Braille and electronic to be found
in the US.
Cheers.

I'm not in the least bit religious so am the wrong one to comment really,
but I know the Torch Trust have produced or make available for sale an
online bible with practically all the different versions of the bible. I
helped someone to install it and set it up once which I think was a tiny bit
of a fiddle but got there. I believe if you look to the USA you will find
tons more the same kind of thing.
Of course for things like Koran there would be issues about screen readers
and relevant speech engines which would be an access issue unless one could
read an English translation.

A listener who's also a VI Roman Catholic priest has contacted the show
about his lack of access to biblical and other material. I'd like to
have something on about this in the near future. Would anyone who has
had difficulty getting hold of Christian or material relating to other
faiths, or who has found solutions, computer related or otherwise to
overcoming difficulties please email me at
Ian.macrae@xxxxxxxxx
I'm aware of the book courier bible. But in what range of formats is
the Koran, for example, available?
Look forward to hearing your stories.
