And why shouldn't there be? Must a husband read only the same books as his wife? Are children who live in the same house as their parents not allowed their own players? There are many good family reasons why there could be more than one player in a household.

I submitted my details as requested through the proper channels but heard no more so I assume I was unsuccessful despite putting my request in before the deadline. All the best Martin ----- Original Message ----- From: ELEANOR BURKE To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, May 06, 2009 3:51 PM Subject: [access-uk] Talking Book Library I am wondering how many members on this list use the RNIB Talking Book Library and ow many of those members were contacted about the new type of Talking Book machine which can be used with USB Flash Drive. I understand that there is a pilot going on at present with regard to this machine but equally I understand that no existing member of the library will be entitled to one of these new books, only new members will receive them. For those of you in the pilot, what do you think of the machine and out of interest did the Talking Book Library contact you directly about this pilot scheme or did you hear about it through Read-on, the Talking Book Library CD sent out to members.
