Week 9, # 22

I first looked at the HCPL digital media site section on audio books. The broad subject categories are great for browsers, keeping in mind that one can also search by title, author, etc. I then looked at Agatha Christie mystery books and found all the info. given very thorough with the exception of the "reader" who is listed right below the author wtihout denoting that he/she is the reader. This may seem minor but patrons like some readers better than others and I tend to agree that a reader can make or break a book. The movies seem to be a little of this and a little of that but nothing too popular (our own branch's collection is better) and maybe movie buffs can find here titles which are not easily found elsewhere. I found that our HCPL digital media catalogs to be more attractive and easier to use than Librivox. The way the headings are displayed with categories and colored covers makes one want to find out more and stay longer exploring other titles.
