Retro Reader Library is a handy application created to carry, share, read and listen to your favorite books.

There is something pleasant about reading an actual book which is lost, when the reader has to scroll down to read rather than, more naturally, flip the pages of a book. RetroReader presents books in this more natural and holistic form. With the included text to speech feature, you can even have the program read to you (or your kids or parents) any of the millions of free books available on the internet.

Retro Reader Library is an eBook library program with a natural book interface and it is very fun and easy to use. It can export books to custom pdf or image sets that perfectly fit the screen of most any mobile device so you can conveniently read any of the books in your library wherever you are.

The program can do full text searching, auto bookmarking, locate and automatically import any of thousands of books from the internet via complete integration with the Project Gutengerg web site, has text to speech to read books aloud or create Audio CDs. Both SAPI 4 and 5 speech engines are supported and any compatible voices you have are automatically available, a custom MS Agent character is also included.

Print out bindable books, import, export, and share books in your private library. A secure file format for importing and exporting your books means your privacy is protected. Customizable behaviors and backgrounds to match your personality and needs. European languages are supported.

The program is a pleasant, natural way to read or listen to long text files or it can be used as a tool for book binding hobbyists, or for quickly listening to texts for school or work, or even small private book runs.
