Downloadable Audiobooks popular for Georgia library system

The Hall County Library System became the first library in Georgia last month to offer downloadable Recorded Books to public library patrons, and just the fifth library nationwide to provide the service.

Since the downloadable audiobook service became active, over 140 Hall County Library cardholders have registered to use the service.

“The new audiobook service is the most popular new resource I have seen in our public libraries in my 30 year career,â€? Hall County Library Director Susan Stewart said. “It is the future model for delivery of library resources for the tech-savvy patron. The delivery of downloadable audiobooks is cost-efficient and the least labor intensive method to provide access to literature in digital audio form.”
