[CASL-L] digital audio books

[Barbara Johnson]

What if you created your own Audio Books... could you record one of your
students, (maybe just audio) put the recording on schooltube or youtube,
and put the link in the MARC record for the book...  then they belong to
you??

Also, iConn.org has a large selection of audio books available... you could
also include these in your resources...
