Re: Audio book resources for Upper School libraries

Hi,
We ordered a few Playaways to test them. Faculty who checked them
out were positive. We currently have a fairly large collection of
audiobooks on CD (and also cassette, but we purchase only CD format
now). We haven't tried any downloading yet, though I personally have
an account with Audible and love it. Cataloging the Playaways was
interesting! Online I found a "Guide to Cataloging Playaway Devices
Based on AACR2r Chapters 6 and 9", which was great.
