[LM_NET] Free YA & Classic Audiobooks - Sync is LIVE!

[Mary Burkey <mary.burkey@GMAIL.COM>]

Please forgive the cross postings - here's some good news! Each week, from
today until September 1st, you can download two totally FREE audiobooks
through SYNC http://www.audiobooksync.com/! Anyone may participate, there's
no required sign-up or personal info or credit card needed, the titles are
in MP3 format compatible with ANY digital player or computer, and the
choices are top titles from the best audiobook producers - how much better
could it get?!? There's even great printable materials so that you can
promote your own library or school audiobook collection!  Feel free to add
links to your library website, email to your library discussion groups and
friends, post on Twitter & Facebook, and build displays & listen-alike lists
to entice new listeners to take advantage of your library's audiobook
collection. And as the downloads are handled through OverDrive, it's a
terrific way to introduce new users to your library's digital resources.
There's even an entire social community where SNYC participants may interact
with authors, narrators, and audiobook producers! SYNC has been developed to
promote audiobook listening to teens ages 13 and up through the unbranded
open forum Audiobook Community http://www.audiobookcommunity.com/.  But it's
not just for teens! Each week, two new titles will be available for download
- one a current teen favorite, one a classic  with a similar theme. What a
great way to experience classics on your summer reading list, discover great
YA literature, or download perfect family listening for a wide spectrum of
ages. Check out the entire list of titles at the bottom of my email. It's
summertime and the listenin' is easy - and FREE - with SYNC!

Happy listening!
