Great, this is all very useful.

OK, nearly there. Now, if anyone's got a few moments, can I ask you to do a
quick test?

For example, do a google search for

Dumfries talking newspaper

and let me know if you find it easy to get the result.

Then do another google search for then exact line (you can copy and paste)

Dumfries talking newspaper site:tnf.org.uk

What do you feel about having the results embedded in a PDF?

Also, browsing around the site http://www.tnf.org.uk do you feel it is very
accessible? What do you feel about the drop-down menus?

Now finally, go to http://find.talking-newspapers.co.uk/ and do a search for
Dumfries (you should just be able to type and press return without bothering
with the mouse).

Do you find this easier than the pdf or other google results?

Is the way the options of a text/visual version explained satisfactorily? I
have tried to keep the resulting audio page very simple, hence no
link-backs.

A lot of suggestions from this group have been implemented, but further
feedback is always appreciated before the site is finalised and goes live.

This is a resource specifically for both visually impaired people OR
volunteers to find their local talking newspaper as nothing else accessible
exists and your input is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
