In most cases NLS will supply audio books to the contractor on 2-track, 3-3/4 ips, 7" open reels of analog tape, or on 4-track, 3-3/4 ips, 7" open reels (and occasionally in other formats). NLS will also supply a digital file (OPF) containing some of the bibliographic information (metadata) for the book required to create the DTB, and, if available, a print copy of the book with timing notation written in the margins. The contractor shall convert each analog track into a separate digital audio WAV file, compliant with relevant sections of NLS Specification #120. No CD submissions shall be required under this contract. From the digital audio file set for each title, the contractor shall also create a DTB of the book that is compliant with NLS Specifications #1203, #1205, and #1206 and ANSI/NISO standard Z39.86-2002.
