Free Audiobooks for my iPod!!

You don’t have to have an iPod to enjoy free audiobooks but I find listening to a book on my iPod as a great way to keep myself busy while waiting on line, traveling, or relaxing in the backyard.
Downloading an audiobook from the Chester County Library website is easy. Go to www.ccls.org and click on the download audio and ebooks icon. Download the overdrive software to your computer and you’re ready to go.
Now all you have to do is choose the books you want and put them in your eBag. The book will stay there for 30 minutes, this is when you should decide if you want to borrow it. Next you borrow the book. Borrowing times vary and many books can be downloaded to your iPod or burned to CDs. After the borrowing time the book goes back to the virtual library for others to use.
I agree with Howard’s post on using a strong word to describe listening to an audiobook rather than just, listening. I believe that much more intense listening goes into enjoying an audiobook. I like Howard’s suggestion of audiolistening. I think I will use that term from now on.
I have just borrowed The Help and Sense and Sensibility.
This is just another amazing way to use your local library.
Happy Listening
