We are excited to bring Playaways into our Howe Library Collection! You can find them on our YA Audiobook shelf located between our YA Nonfiction collection and our Teen Resource collection. Contact Kim Baker, our Teen Librarian, with questions about Playaways or title suggestions.

If you aren’t familiar with Playaways, they are a device with a full audiobook preloaded for a listener. Add your headphones, or an AUX cable to connect the device to a stereo system, and a AAA battery to start listening.

For those wondering, Children’s Playaways are coming soon as well. Stay tuned for future developments!
