Dear colleagues: Does anyone know of a source for audio books on CD (preferred over downloads) that are of the Torah (English translations), and/or modern commentaries, and other sacred works that would be appropriate for our Reform synagogue library? We're working on building our overall synagogue resources for people with various disabilities, and I'd like to add some appropriate audio materials. I can find other fiction and other more topical non-fiction in audio, but haven't really hit on a good source for sacred works that isn't Torah chanting.
I've looked at ArtScroll, but what I'm looking for, in a perfect world, would be an unabridged reading of URJ Press' Torah: A Modern Commentary (or the like). I am aware of the lending services of JBI International (Jewish Braille Institute), as well as our own state library services for the blind, but again, in a perfect world, we'd like some things to purchase. Any ideas for items we can purchase for our collection? Please email me off-list, and I can compile responses and post back. Todah rabah!
