[CASL-L] Audiobooks on CD

[Dawn Zillich]

When I check out CDs from my public library, I use my laptop to download on
itunes so I can listen on my iPhone. I label it as a library book and
delete the file when I’m finished listening. I never have to worry that I
may bring the disks back late and can listen at my leisure. If you are a
1:1 school, could you download the files on the school server and limit the
checkout the way Overdrive or Hoopla does? Don’t know if that would be a
copyright violation or not.

Hello,



We have a substantial collection of audiobooks on CD (including MP3), but
many students no longer own CD players. I am wondering what others have
done so that these materials can still be of use. Has anyone actually
purchased small disc players for checkout with an audiobook? Other ideas?
Also, what have you purchased in place of the CDs? Playaways? Are your
students accessing digital audiobooks as much as they did CDs? Thanks in
advance!
