Books On CD

Here's an option that most of us have heard of: Books on CD. When I began this journey it wouldn't have occurred to me to consider books on tape as a form of assistive technology.  However, having text read aloud can be extremely helpful to students who struggle with reading; it's especially helpful if the student has the text to follow along, so they are seeing the words as they're being read.  Books on CD allow users to listen to text and special playback units allow the user to search and bookmark pages and chapters.
