Introducing TBS Lionshare

Talking Book ServicesTBS Lionshare is a service similar to BARD but for locally produced digital talking books and magazines available for download.

Just like with BARD, downloaded audio files are zipped and need to be unzipped onto a flash drive to play.

Please note that all digital talking books available from Lionshare are produced in an alternate format that can only be read on an NLS approved player.

Lionshare can be found at http://www.statelibrary.sc.gov/lionshare or by clicking the Lionshare link at the left of this page.
