Riassunto

This is the first book on audio book selection and use for public and school librarians and teachers. Topics addressed include how to begin and upgrade a collection, the relative merits of complete and abridged audio books, a sample written selection policy for the audio book collection, how to evaluate production qualities of audio books, ratings of products from major producers and distributors based on a survey of AV librarians, an informative directory of producers and distributors, and an annotated bibliography of more than 200 outstanding audio books. A chapter on audio in education offers a rationale and strategies for incorporating audio books in education from elementary school through adult literacy programs.
