You can check out audiobooks from the library through the same system that you check out their books online. What you do is go to www.overdrive.com... you can see the type books they have online to download. To do this, you must have an adobe account, which you probably already have. Check with your library to make sure your state is participating. But you go with your card number as your signin, to our states unbound site, it will break down to your particular library. Then search for books, the have a certain numbers of copies of each book, if they are checked out, you go on a waiting list and will be notified by your email and given 48 hours to go and check it out. Its called an ehold and you can check to see where in line you are any time by looking at your account. You put overdrive on you computer, iphone, ipod and download mp3 or wav audio books and listen to books while you are driving or working out. Its a great program that can save you lots of money if you really like books. Hope this helps... PM me if you have more questions!
