PLAYAWAYS
They're not an MP3, audio tape or CD player and they're not software -- they are the self-contained audio equivalent of a book. Clearly marked buttons give listeners the option of placing digital bookmarks and controlling the speed of a narrator's voice, all while easily moving forward and backward through audio book selections.
Additionally, each Playaway has a universal headphone jack that works with almost any type of headphone or mobility accessory. If you don't have headphones, earbuds may be purchased for $1 at the circulation desk and then the earbuds are yours to keep.
To see a full listing of available titles, Search the Online Catalog and type in PLAYAWAYS and click on the Subject button. Each Playaway is checked out with your patron card the same as any other materials.
