Before talking books were invented, the main sources of knowledge for the blind were Braille and word-of-mouth. While audiobooks are rich in material and not constrained by time, place, or space, Braille reading demands a certain amount of basic understanding. As a result, audiobooks are now the most popular accessible reading option for the blind. Through thoroughly examining audiobooks' accessibility, user experience, personalization and customization features, social support, and popularity, this paper will investigate the effects of audiobooks on the blind community and highlight their significance in fostering information access and cultural participation.
