audiobooks

Read for Free from a Phone, Tablet or Laptop through the Bentley Library 

The Bentley Library's collection of audiobooks is available for all your summer road trips! Weekend coastal drives or sitting in traffic waiting to get to the coast, in either case, listening to a good narrator makes the trip more enjoyable. Audiobooks are also great for taking long walks, gardening, sunbathing or just hanging out on the lawn.

As June is Audiobook Month, I’ve been pondering why I enjoy them so much. They save time. I can listen to them in the car [commuting or on road trips]; walking my 10,000 steps; waiting around for music lessons and the other kid’s activities to be over; de-cluttering the house; folding laundry and the ever popular, Yard Work. These are all activities that I really don’t like and listening to a book can makes the task less odious. I listen to all kinds of content: fiction & nonfiction; short stories & full length novels; all types of genres. I try to mix it up.

Did you know that we now offer more than 1,200 downloadable eBooks and audiobooks via OverDrive?  The Bentley Library's OverDrive collection includes fiction and nonfiction bestsellers, award winners, classics and perennial favorites.
