Find more information on all our social media, at www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/social/ In addition to Facebook, we offer an RSS feed, Twitter, and Google+. * Help sought for Storybud I am a visually impaired student and father of 2 young children.As part of my studies at college here in Mayo, Ireland, I have designed a story website, www.storybud.org Initially the site was created for parents in a similar visually impaired situation to myself, i.e. we cannot 'read' stories to our children in the traditional book sense. The site works with speech software used by blind and visually impaired computer users, allowing them the same enjoyment of story telling. However since its inception December 2011 the site has been expanded to allow many different users to access the site, and of course the site can also be used and enjoyed by sighted users as well. Storybud has further developed and now has 3 different formats: text, audio combined text, and audio. Stories are 'blocked' into short text blocks to assist beginner readers. Project Gutenberg readers might be interested in this as a learning or leisure resource. Please note storybud is a community oriented project and I have no interest in commercialising it. It is purely to share the joy of stories from around the world in an inclusive manner. Most of the material is from Project Gutenberg and Librivox, who have allowed us to use same. If you have any questions, comments, feedback etc you can contact me at: Paul Halligan <tigerone@eircom.net> Also if you know of any other organizations/bodies who may be interested in the project please pass on the site url: www.storybud.org * New eBook releases from the past month The Old Showmen and the Old London Fairs, by Thomas Frost 41961 Travels in Arabia, by Bayard Taylor 41960 Philippine Progress Prior to 1898, by Various 41959 [Subtitle: A Source Book of Philippine History to Supply a Fairer View of Filipino Participation and Supplement the Defective Spanish Accounts] [Editors: Austin Craig and Conrado Benitez] The Microscope, by Andrew Ross 41958 Cooley's Cyclopaedia of Practical Receipts, Sixth Ed., Volume II, 41957 by Arnold Cooley and Richard Tuson Hans Råskov, by Knud Hjortø 41956 [Language: Danish] The Ship in the Desert, by Joaquin Miller 41955 The Wheel of Fortune, by Mahatma Gandhi 41954 Cyrus Hall McCormick, by Herbert Newton Casson 41953 [Subtitle: His Life and Work] Scott Greenwood and Co.
