Besides our great collection of downloadable MP3 audio books from eBooks To Go (OverDrive)collection, NetLibrary now offers downloadable MP3 audio books. This format works on iPods formatted with a Windows computer or other types of MP3 players (with or without DRM). The company is still working on software to allow MAC formatted iPods to download the MP3 audio books. (If you have a MAC iPod then you need to use eBooks To Go).
You can access these books directly via NetLibrary or through the Library Catalog. Our beginning collection of titles includes 746 titles for adult readers and 69 titles for children or YA readers. Below is links to PDFs of current titles.
To get them you need to be a resident of the Library’s taxing district and have a library card. If you already have a LVCCLD library card and have not yet setup a NetLibrary account you can do so by going to “Get a NetLibrary Account” page.
There are 54 of the Modern Scholar lecture series that are available in MP3 format. These titles are not listed with the books on the attachment to the original post. To view them in NetLibrary, click on “Browse by Subject” under “eAudiobooks” in the “In Our Collection” Box under the LVCCLD Logo in the upper right of the page. Then, click on “Lectures” on the subject list to see the titles.
Most of them are about 8 hours long. There are a few series (such as Odyssey of the West: A Classic Education Through the Great Books), as well.
