MP3 audiobooks, aka "Playaways" are here!

Are you addicted to audiobooks, like I am? If you are, prepare to feed your habit with a new format, MP3 audiobooks! We are very pleased to introduce this new collection. MP3 audiobooks, also called "Playaways" after the company that has introduced them, are audiobooks recorded onto their own self-contained MP3 player. You no longer need to confine your audiobook listening to your CD or cassette player! With Playaways, you can carry the small MP3 player with you wherever you go. Our Playaways circulate with a fresh battery in the player AND a spare, so you'l never be without power, and also a lanyard to make wearing the Playaway easier. You may either provide your own headphones, or purchase a set of earbud headphones from the circulation desk for $1.00. Our collection of Playaways includes popular fiction and non-fiction, and will continue to grow steadily. Try one out the next time you're at the library!
