The Top 3 from the LMC & IT: Issue #7

The Top 3 from the LMC & IT this week 5/13/2019:


1. Teen Book Finder:

Here is an app to assist you and your favorite Teen readers!

The American Library Association always has lists of the best books and awards books every year. This includes lists they suggest for our Young Adult/Teen population. Did you know there is an app that will allow you to search and browse the ALA lists to help you and your YA readers find something to read? There is something for everyone from a variety of genres. 


Find the app here- available for both iOS and Android.Or, point your phone's camera here to link you directly:

2.  Free Audiobooks! 

My LMC colleagues alerted me to this great email you can sign up for this summer. Audiobook Sync allows you to download your own copy of an audiobook (for free! to keep!). 

Audiobook Sync is available this summer. for 10 weeks. Each week you will get an email that matches up two books that are similar, but different (synced, get it?)
The only catch is that you need to download them within a week to get them free. Once you download you keep it, so you don't have to listen within the week, just download it. Each Thursday is a new email with 2 new books. 

This is a great idea for that long road trip you are planning, or just for relaxing by the beach!
