Wonderful Library Resources

I wanted to promote two wonderful web sites that offer free access to audio versions of classic works of literature. LibriVox (http://librivox.org) is a site through which volunteers read public domain works. You can download mp3 or ogg files from this site and listen on a computer or mp3 player. LoudLit (http://www.loudlit.org) offers the same sort of works and depends on donations. LoudLit, however, also has the text versions of books, so students can read and listen at the same time. These are both great resources for library media specialists scrambling to meet the needs of their students.
