I first tried the downloadable audio books when the Library had a contract with Recorded Books. I had just bought my first MP3 player and it took me all weekend to transfer the title to my player because I would not admit to my children that I needed help. Now there are video tutorials and a much simplified sign in procedure. There are so many titles on Overdrive to choose from – the classics, different fiction genres along with nonfiction works - no wonder the statistics are up for Overdrive’s audiobooks. I think these statistics will increase in proportion to number of our customers who have access to high speed internet. We should remember to tell students who are reluctant readers that there are many Reading List books on Overdrive which might help them get through their projects.
The titles on Overdrive match my listening interests more than titles on Project Gutenburg or World eBook Fair
