	I did not realise that I could download books. I have talking books delivered from the library every month. I discovered them when I had Temporal Arteritis and was unable to read. Still have pain sometimes, but NOTHING like it used to be... still have the books delivered monthly though, by a lovely lady volunteer... Hi Freda...(x) Isn't it very expensive to down load a whole book ? You can buy them, but they are usually abridged. I have them given as presents sometimes. Deanna X

	There are sites which advertise free downloads, but mostly to MP3. Difficult to understand, or I sould say I found it so. Our library used to advertise a service, but I am waiting to hear back from them as to whether they still do. We have an Outreach library van every three weeks.
