[Athen] TTS with eTextbooks

[kerscher at montana.com]

>From head of accessibility at Redshelf,


 

Here is the answer:  RedShelf does offer Text-to-Speech for all of our titles.  It is currently enabled on most books, but some of the older titles have to be reprocessed to add it.  If a student does not have the option for TTS in their book, they (or their parents) can reach out to us at accessibility at redshelf.com <mailto:accessibility at redshelf.com> , and we will reprocess their book.  It takes about an hour to complete.  Happy to answer any additional questions directly at erin at redshelf.com <mailto:erin at redshelf.com> .

 

Best

George

Hello all,

 

My daughter texted me back and she is using RedShelf for her textbooks.  This is the first quarter that TTS has been available.  I have never used RedShelf.  Does anyone have access to RedShelf to see if the addition of TTS is across the board?

 

Stay healthy,

Sean
