Audiobooks via the Internet

I browsed the Greater Phoenix Digital Library website and explored in more detail the titles for the OverDrive audiobooks.

I liked the "Browse audio ebooks" option which allows one to search by genre. I also liked the "burn to CD" notice when you look up a list of titles.

I checked under the biography/autobiography option and found a book called Antarctica on a Plate by Alexa Thomson. This author agrees to go down to Antarctica and cook for scientists, eccentrics, etc.

This sounds like an interesting premise and reminds me of my remote and rural existence in Montana. I certainly had challenges when preparing food. Let's just say I was 22 miles from a grocery store and 50 miles from a WalMart. And certainly fast food was NOT an option. This author has even more intense experiences dealing with defrosting food in a frozen environment, for example.

I also explored "Sue Grafton" to see if any of her works were accessible via audio ebooks.

Interestingly, after I reviewed this site, I had 3 questions in a row about the Greater Phoenix Digital Library at the Information Desk and I was able to help each individual since I had just reviewed the features.
