Access was another motivator for people, with over 1 in 4 saying that they found it easier to access audiobooks than physical books, while nearly 1 in 5 said that audiobooks allowed them access to stories that their poor eyesight prevented them from reading. · cdn-literacytrust-production.s3.amazonaws.com
