Calibre Audio proudly reached its 50th anniversary in 2024.

For five decades, we have been on a mission to unlock the world of stories and learning for those who find reading printed books challenging. What began as a vision to make books more accessible for the visually impaired son of one of our founders has grown into a powerful force, enriching the lives of thousands of people.

Read about our history here.

Since 1974, our commitment to inclusivity has paved the way for thousands of people with visual impairments, learning differences or other conditions that make holding a book difficult, to experience the joys and other benefits of a good book.

With an extensive collection of audiobooks, spanning many genres, we’ve remained at the forefront of transforming reading into an immersive and accessible experience for our members.

The impact of accessible books goes beyond words - it stimulates minds, supports learning, broadens horizons, fosters a sense of community, reduces isolation and improves wellbeing.
