Bringing Books to Life

Joanna is an actress and a volunteer for Calibre Audio. Her training and skills are vital in bringing the words on the page to life:

Once we have a copy of the printed book, our in-house production team gets started. Kieran is the Senior Studio Engineer at Calibre Audio:

Every audiobook in our collection begins the same way: with someone asking for a book to be made accessible to every type of reader. We need your support to make as many books as we can accessible. 

With your support, we can create more audiobooks so more people can access the stories that matter to them, whether in the classroom, at home, or on their own.

Recording might be complete, but the work isn’t finished. Checking for quality and structure are integral to making a great listening experience. Ben is Calibre Audio’s Production Assistant:

Because of that one request and the work that followed, The Declaration is now available as an audiobook. Thousands of young adults who couldn’t read the physical book can now read along with classmates thanks to Calibre Audio's team of staff and volunteers. Now, every pupil in that classroom can engage with the same story, together. 

"Now we have the audiobook, every child is included, no one misses out. Calibre Audio has helped us break barriers in the classroom, for which I am truly grateful."
