#22 e-audio-books
A great idea. Download the audio book you want straight to your MP3 player via the library catalogue. On the due date/end of loan period the recording deletes itself.
No overdue fines. No lost materials. Wow!!
A major problem is that the majority of audio book users in our library service are elderly, some with vision problems. I doubt that library users who wont use the online cataloges will be downloading audio files on their MP3 players.
However other users will embrace the technology and love the fact that they dont need to physically go to a library to borrow and return the e-audio-book.
