I heard RFB&D didn't offer textbooks below the fifth grade level.

Yes, RFB&D has many books which NLS doesn't bother to carry.
RFBD&D is particularly good for students (at all levels, including
graduate
school textbooks), professionals, scientific textbooks, and other
technical
books. The NLS does not record such technical and professional books and
textbooks.

I believe that rfb&d may be more geared twards students in need of
textbooks. Many are still read by humans.
I don't know much about it.

Subject: [GW-Booksense] Why should I bother with audio books from RFB&D?
hello all.
I am unconvinced that after NLS Daisy collection of audio books, the
NLS/State library collection of audio books on tape and audible.com, RFB&D
is worth exploring. Now Pl keep in mind I'm only interested in audio
books
recorded by real humans and not text based books read out by your speech
synthesizer.
For such audio books, does RFB&D really has a considerable unique
selection
that I cant find in the other 3 sources above? Is it really worth my time
to deal with that site? Or is RFB&D going to be so redundant that I
shouldn't even bother?
