There’s a wide choice of ways to listen to our books whether that’s through our new Play Calibre streaming service, finding us on the Dolphin EasyReader app or using our free postal service to receive books on memory stick. Our members are at the heart of our charity and help shape the service – and books - that we offer. We also have the ability to record books that haven’t yet been made available on audio. We’re continually adding new titles to ensure we provide an eclectic range of books that not only include bestsellers but also more unusual and personal requests from our members. Under 16s can also borrow audiobooks from the main collection (we have over 12,000 altogether), other than those with an X-rated restriction (with scenes/language inappropriate for young members). And because we know how listening to the audio version enables so many children to keep up with their peers, we also stock books from the GCSE, A-Level and PSHE national curriculum. Our collection is crammed full of leading contemporary children’s authors, including Michael Morpurgo, Jacqueline Wilson, J.K Rowling, Malorie Blackman, David Walliams, Phillip Pullman – as well as all the classics.
