Do you love to read?
Do you have a clear speaking voice and very
good oral reading skills?
Is your pronunciation clear and accurate?
Do you have enthusiasm for doing something worthwhile
for others?

IF YOU ANSWERED “YES” TO THESE QUESTIONS, the WUSF Radio Reading Service would like to hear from you.

AFTER SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION, YOU WILL BE CONTACTED REGARDING AN AUDITION AND INTERVIEW. VOLUNTEER READERS CAN SERVE IN THE FOLLOWING WAYS:

Live Readers read live on-the-air at the following times:

Substitute Readers are on call and read live for the Reading Service, when a regularly scheduled Volunteer is unavailable.

Volunteer Readers read pre-recorded material for broadcast later in the day or during the following day. One half-hour or one-hour long opportunities are available, and Volunteers can record more than one program. Recording opportunities are available Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 4 PM.
