[ISLMA-Share] Overdrive

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

eRead Illinois does have audiobooks but they do not have a very large
selection. You can request books to be purchased, but the one I wanted was
$70! The same one I needed specifically, was only $40 from OverDrive. I'm
about to sign with them. I was looking only at audiobooks. I feel that
Overdrive is very reasonable.
