QNS is a member of Round Table on Information Access for People with Print Disabilities Incorporated. Round Table’s role is to facilitate and influence the production and use of quality alternative formats for people with print disabilities by optimising the evolving Round Table body of knowledge. QNS uses Round Table guidelines to ensure that our audio products are truly accessible.

QNS produces DAISY audio. Through Round Table, QNS is able to keep up-to-date with software for the production and playback of DAISY products. QNS uses Audacity – fantastic free software for audio recording.
