- Description
- The National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped (NLS), Library of Congress, administers a free library service to eligible residents of the United States and American citizens living abroad who cannot hold, handle, or read standard print media because of a temporary or permanent visual or physical limitation. In 2005 793,891 people were enrolled in the program. NLS has designed, through contract, the next generation talking book player and media. These solid state audio reproduction machines will be produced to replace the cassette tape players currently in use. Once the transition is complete, machines will be purchased to satisfy a growing patron base and to replace machines lost and damaged. NLS wishes to obtain the services of a firm to manufacture two models (Standard and Advanced) of the Digital Talking Book Machine (DTBM). The Digital Talking Book Machines (DTBM) manufactured by the contractor will play Digital Talking Books stored on USB flash drive cartridges (DTBC) manufactured under a separate contract.
