Now you can check out audiobooks from your home or office with a valid library card!
As part of the WILBOR consortium, the Norelius Community Library offers audiobooks for its patrons to download and listen to.
Your library card is the “key” to downloading the audiobooks from any computer that is connected to the Internet, at any hour of the day or night.
You can browse or search for a title you’d like to listen to, log in with your library card number, and download the title to your computer. You can then listen to the book on your computer, or transfer to an mp3 player to listen. You don’t have to come to the library building to check out the audiobook, and you don’t have to return it. The book automatically “returns” to the collection for someone else to borrow.
WILBOR's collection has fiction and nonfiction titles, as well as books for children and teens. Bestsellers and classics, history and humor, business and self help—you'll find them all in WILBOR.
Books will check out for 1 week and the file will "expire" on your computer after 1 week, but when the books are transferred to a portable player you can listen to them at your leisure. Some titles can even be burned to CDs for your personal use.
