Lots of new things to try

We have downloadable audio books!
The occasional patron, starting a few years, had mention the possibility of being able to download audio books like being able to download music. Now, it is actually possible and it’s much easier to do that I had expected. They are available at http://bibliomation.lib.overdrive.com.

A few things to be aware of: this is a shared collection with a number of other libraries. Most titles are on a “one patron at a time” model, just like a physical book or book on tape. So if it’s checked out, a hold can be placed and an email notice is sent when the title can be checked out again. There are a number of titles that are always available, meaning that they can be checked to an unlimited number of people at a time.

Also new....playaway audio books. We only have a handful of titles at the moment though we are planning on adding some more. Just what is a playaway audio book? It is a preloaded audio player that has all the controls to listen. No need to download anything, no need to have an MP3 player...
