BOOKS ON THE GO AUDIOBOOKS
If you are an audiobook fan and have ever started a trip, a commute or a project and realized with that sinking feeling that you do not have a new audiobook to help pass the time, we have great news for you. The Fayette County Public Library offers downloads of audiobooks.
Thanks to public service librarian, Jessica Kuhr, who did extensive research on this program and brought it to our library. We can now download books at anytime on any day, you could say the our audio collection never closes. The digital audio book collection allows you to download audio books from the internet, free of charge, so you can listen to a wide range of books on portable devices, CD players or your computer. There are 1,000's of titles available now to download.
All you need to get started is your library card and your pin number that you use to access your account and renew your books on line. The library staff will be happy to issue your pin number.
WORLD VIEW
Ever noticed this beautiful globe in the youth department? Rumor has it that it was a gift several years ago from the Friends. (Let us know if you know.) Although recent changes in country allegiances and name changes have rendered many globes outdated-that does not change the fact that this globe is a beauty and an asset to our library.
Find your dream locale on the globe and visit through books or movies.
