Monthly Highlights from TBBC
Monthly Highlights from TBBC January 2021 TALKING BOOK & BRAILLE CENTER A MESSAGE FROM THE NEW JERSEY STATE LIBRARIAN This will be my last newsletter message. I will be retiring on January 31st. Jennifer Nelson has been named as the next State Librarian. I have been reflecting on the past eight years. While I believe that the State Library has made many advances across the state, none has been as positive and fulfilling as the services to you, our TBBC patrons. You can go to public libraries in almost every county for help to download books and magazines. TBBC can now send multiple books on a single cartridge and TBBC is now piloting a Braille device that fits into the palm of your hand. Such advances are truly remarkable and will get better. So as I leave a job I love, I love that you can now get “any book, any time.” Take care and be safe. Thank you, Mary Mary L. Chute New Jersey State Librarian NEW JERSEY STATE LIBRARIAN – JENNIFER NELSON Thomas Edison State University (TESU) announced that Jennifer R. Nelson has been chosen to serve as the new State Librarian for the New Jersey State Library (NJSL), an affiliate of TESU. TESU President, Dr. Merodie A. Hancock, said “Jen has built a reputation as an active state and national leader in digital inclusion, equity and diversity programming, and technology and data innovation.” Jennifer Nelson currently serves as the director of Minnesota State Library Services, a division that administers Minnesota’s state and federal programs for libraries and the Minnesota Braille and Talking Book Library. -

Wu1 Academic libraries face numerous stressors as they seek to meet the needs of their users through technological advances while adhering to copyright laws. This paper seeks to explore one specific proposal to balance these interests, the impact of recent decisions on its viability, and the copyright challenges that remain after these decisions. The challenges facing academic law libraries are many, but the three primary ones are budget, demand, and misperceptions. Though actual means and medians of collection expenditures continue to grow,2 they have failed to keep pace with inflation rates,3 resulting in a net decrease in spending power over the last decade. On a different front, student and faculty appetites for multiple formats and interdisciplinary research sources continue to expand, placing greater strain on shrinking budgets. -

Exploring the Timespaces of Subscription-Based Audiobooks
NMS0010.1177/1461444819864691new media & societyTattersall Wallin and Nolin 864691research-article2019 Article new media & society 1 –19 Time to read: Exploring © The Author(s) 2019 Article reuse guidelines: the timespaces of sagepub.com/journals-permissions https://doi.org/10.1177/1461444819864691DOI: 10.1177/1461444819864691 subscription-based journals.sagepub.com/home/nms audiobooks Elisa Tattersall Wallin and Jan Nolin University of Borås, Sweden Abstract With remediation of the printed book into audiobook subscription services, reading by listening is becoming a popular alternative to reading by seeing. This article explores when people read by listening and whether there may be a shift regarding the places and times people read by listening rather than by seeing. Based on a considerable dataset from a Swedish subscription service for digital books, this article reveals that audiobook reading takes place at somewhat different times than expected and that subscribers read significant amounts each day. The findings indicate that the remediation into reading by listening using digital audiobooks may close the gender gap common in reading, as the reading practices of men and women are very similar, with men even reading slightly more than women. The reading practices of young adults are also similar to the larger population. Furthermore, the concepts stationary reading, mobile reading and stationary/mobile reading are introduced. Keywords Audiobooks, mobile reading, reading by listening, reading by seeing, remediation, stationary reading, stationary/mobile reading, streaming subscription service, temporality, timespace Introduction This article investigates changes of when and where reading takes place when it is performed by listening. In focus is an ongoing remediation of reading material as Corresponding author: Elisa Tattersall Wallin, Swedish School of Library and Information Science, University of Borås, Allégatan 1, 501 90 Borås, Sweden.
