Thing 12--Books, Books, & More Books

I chose to explore Audiobooks, because it seemed like something to share with patrons at the reference desk.  After looking at the app, I still think it might have some limited use with patrons, especially students who are in need of a classic "today" and every library copy is checked out.  However, the volunteer narrators made me really appreciate the pros that do the audios I listen to; don't know that I could listen to an entire book read by some of these folks.  I was also a bit appalled that the authors are alphabetized by first name! 

Another limited use might be for customers who are looking for books in another language, though the number of those titles seemed quite small.
