Like many others, we have transitioned our children's audio budget away from CD's and playaways to vox books, tonies, and Libby. They never had great circulation for us. We do still have an adult CD and playaway collection, but mostly because we haven't gotten

<div class="x_elementToProof" style="font-family:Aptos,Aptos_EmbeddedFont,Aptos_MSFontService,Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:11pt; color:rgb(0,0,0)">
I am curious to know if other libraries are growing their audio book collections or phasing them out.</div>
