A year ago the library introduced a small, easy-to-use digital audiobook called the Playaway. Within this past year, the library’s Playaway collection has grown from approximately 25 titles to almost 200. No downloading, tapes or CDs are necessary to use this handy device. In order to use a Playaway, you will need a pair of headphones or earbuds. Earbuds are available for sale at the registration desk of the Main library. Check out some of the recently added Playaway titles below. Click on a title to check the catalog for availability or call us at 929-3450 for assistance.
