[CASL-L] CASL-L Digest, Vol 7, Issue 2

[Melissa Thom]

I did a little research on this topic and it looks like you do have to be a
member of ALA. Here is some basic info about the program:
https://blog.libro.fm/alc-program-free-audiobooks-for-teachers-and-librarians/

But as Cathy said, you get back your membership cost in the first couple of
months.  My cart for January was worth over $400 worth of audio!:)

Hope this helps,
Melissa
