SYNC returns for another summer of free audiobook downloads

AudioFile Magazine is gearing up to give readers free audiobook downloads ALL summer long! SYNC has been offered since Summer 2010 and returns on April 26, 2018 as AudioFile Magazine’s commitment to introducing the listening experience to teens.

SYNC audiobook titles are given away in themed pairs. Each week, two different books (one modern Young Adult book and one classic book) will be available to download for FREE. You have just those 7 days to download the books before the next two books are available, but then they are yours to keep FOREVER. All you need to participate is an email address and OverDrive for your phone or computer.

New audiobooks post each Thursday, from April 26 through July 25, 2018. To see a SYNC schedule and to listen to a sample clip of the new books available each week head over to www.riponlibrary.org. Sign up for email or text alerts and be first to know when new titles are available to download at www.audiobooksync.com.

Call the library at 748-6160 or contact Mandy Sprague at msprague@riponlibrary.org for more information.
