Hi Derbil, Caught last part of interview with Declan O'Sullivn on TippFm Sunday night, Didn't realise you were Clonmel based Hope the book launch in Clonmel Library goes well. What is the date ? In a former involvement with talking newspapers, We requested permission from the author and the publisher of books to transcribe to tape and never had any problems in getting permission and with the growing market in audio books I can't see your publisher not taking up the opportunity. All the best Gerry Shanahan ----- Original Message ----- From: Derbhile Graham To: vicsireland@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, June 13, 2011 7:49 AM Subject: [vicsireland] Re: Accessible Novel Thanks Cearbhail and Noreen And thanks for the tip. I'll look into it. Making it accessible is proving challenging because the publishers have to release the rights and I need to impress on them the importance of making it accessible - particularly if they realise they can make money from it. Best wishes. Derbhile
