Talking Books Program
Senate Bill 2075, passed by the 86th Legislature, requires school districts to notify the parent or guardian of a student determined, on the basis of screening under TEC 38.003 or other basis, to have dyslexia or a related disorder, or determined, on the basis of reading instrument results, to be at risk for dyslexia or other reading difficulties of The Talking Book Program (TBP) maintained by the Texas State Library and Archives Commission. The TBP provides free library services to qualifying Texans with visual, physical, or reading disabilities. It is part of the National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped, a program administered by the Library of Congress. While TPB does not offer textbooks, the program does offer thousands of books that students can use at home and at school. Books are available by download to portable devices using the Braille and Audio Recording Download (BARD) service and through iOs and Android mobile apps and on digital cartridge, in Braille, and in large print.
