Carcieri helps open international business

NORTH KINGSTOWN - Governor Carcieri will be in North Kingstown this morning for the opening of the new BBC Audiobooks America office at Quonset Point, which the governor's office describes as "one more international business which has decided to locate in the Ocean State."

BBC Audiobooks America, part of BBC Worldwide, and British Broadcasting Corporation, is the source of audio books such as Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and children’s books such as Paddington Bear and The Hobbit, according to the governor's office.

The business also offers language courses, history programs and British game shows.
