[ISLMA-Share] Audible

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

Karrie,

Would you please post a link to Audible's Education Program. (I haven't
found it through a Google search.) Last spring I was told by Audible that
they have no education accounts only personal. I would absolutely love to
have a school account.

Thanks,
Stephanie
