[OPLINLIST] Audio collections

[Kelsey Wicker]

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 around to weeding them yet.  They rarely get any circulation.  We've already transferred most of that budget to Libby.

Sincerely,

Hello,
I am curious to know if other libraries are growing their audio book collections or phasing them out.
Thanks!
