[LM_NET] Follow up on Audiobooks

[Jeanette Larson <larsonlibrary@YAHOO.COM>]

Thanks to all who responded to my request for
information about how you are using audiobooks. This
is an ongoing column so please keep my email for
future reference. Several people asked me about
AudioFile magazine so I wanted to share a bit of
information about the journal. Go to
http://www.audiofilemagazine.com/ for full details.
It’s the only journal I’m aware of that totally covers
audiobooks. If you buy the magazine (subscriptions are
reasonably priced) you also get complete access to the
online services. Even if you don’t subscribe, there is
a lot of great free content. Audiopolis is free online
audio reviews of audiobooks and most will be for young
adults. Audiobooks on the Go is a pdf file of
recommended family listening designed for summer and
other holiday travels. You can print it off for
distribution to students and staff. About 25% of the
reviews are free to the public (they are marked
Public). So check it out.
