Audiobooks discussion

Digital Public Library of America (DPLA) is pleased to announce that we have signed an agreement with Amazon Publishing to make all of the approximately 10,000 Amazon Publishing ebooks and audiobooks available to libraries and their patrons.

Now THAT'S good news to hear.

Thanks for the link for more info.

It seems to me that the trend of audiobooks creates inconvenience for offline sales departments. Interesting to see this research.

Still waiting to see the amazon published audiobooks at libraries.


Meanwhile, Blackstone Publishing announced they will end the 90-day embargo to retail and libraries on July 1. Previously this allowed Audible exclusive access to new releases and tag them "only from Audible".
