Accessible Bibles

Are you or someone you know looking for the Bible in Talking Book? Look no further! Xavier Society for the Blind recently recorded and produced the New American Bible. This is the translation approved by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops and is used for liturgy across the United States. Like all of our Talking Books, this will play in the machines provided by the National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled (NLS). It is provided free-of-charge (as are all of our offerings) and for our patrons to keep. Recorded professionally by dedicated voice-over actors, we think you will agree that it sounds great. Check out a couple of clips below! Thank you to our generous donors who facilitated the recording and production of this essential resource!

Don't have a Talking Book machine or looking for the New American Bible in another format? No problem! It is also downloadable in large print and BRF (braille ready file).

Contact us now to request your copy of the New American Bible by emailing us at info@xaviersocietyfortheblind.org or by calling us at 800-637-9193 or 212-473-7800.
