o books while you exercise, clean your house or drive to work with one of these formats that are available at the Glenview Public Library. In addition to the traditional audiobook on cassette or cd, we have two formats that may be new to you.
If you consider yourself a technophobe and have difficulty with technology you might want to try a Playaway. Playaways are portable mp3 players pre-loaded with a book. Once you have supplied a battery and headphones, all you have to do is press play and you are ready to go. You can find these at the Library on the lower level right next to audiobooks on cassette and cd. It really doesn't get any easier than this! Click for a list of titles.
If you own an mp3 player or iPod and are comfortable using it, you have another option for audiobooks. The Glenview Public Library is part of a consortium called MyMediaMall where you can check out digital audiobooks, download to your computer and then transfer them to your mp3 player or iPod. MyMediaMall is open 24/7. To take the Digital Media Guided Tour, click here.
