Recorded Books has a downloadable contract for schools. You subscribe for a
yearly fee and you can download books from their list.
Their website is:
recordedbooks.com
I think there are going to be many companies offering this feature in the very
near future.

> Dear Netters:
>
> I will be attending a meeting at my School Board office this Friday
> which has as its topic the logistics of downloading audiobooks and
> making them available over a computer network within a school. This is
> a new initiative that will be piloted by my school so I'd like to be
> able to bring some information to the table.
>
> Does anyone already do this? What are the costs? Which publishers do
> you use? What issues do we need to consider?
>
> Thanks so much for your help,
