EBSCO Audiobooks’ new design and features create enhanced user experience for libraries -

EBSCO Information Services (EBSCO) is enhancing its audiobook experience with a new design and additional features that provide an improved listening experience for libraries. EBSCO Audiobooks now offers a new audiobook app for listening on the go, an expanded collection of titles, improved delivery systems and a new, easy-to-use design.

By partnering with Findaway, a global leader in digital content delivery, EBSCO Audiobooks now provides access to audiobooks directly from mobile devices. With a simplified workflow and a fun, intuitive design, EBSCO Audiobooks pairs its quick and easy searching with the new EBSCO Audiobooks App, making on-the-go listening easier. The app allows library users to download audiobooks from their library collections directly to their device, and begin listening immediately.

The collaboration with Findaway also expands the collection of EBSCO Audiobooks, which now includes more than 50,000 titles that will appeal to a vast range of library users including leisure readers, researchers, language learners, alternative K-12 learners, vision impaired readers and hobby enthusiasts. EBSCO's team of collection developers and librarians have created several new collections for academic, public library, K-12 and corporate libraries, including Award Winners, Popular Fiction and Popular Non-Fiction.

Laura Ricci, Senior Product Manager at EBSCO, says the new upgrades to the EBSCO Audiobooks offering will give libraries a bigger and better audiobook experience.

Acquiring an EBSCO Audiobook is simple with the new, easy purchase model. Audiobooks are all available to purchase in EBSCOhost Collection Manager through a Single User perpetual access model. Authentication methods for EBSCO Audiobooks now include Personal User Authentication and SSO authentication to provide secure access to the audiobooks from both inside and outside of the library.
