Hi Joan Ann.
Yes, you can get both audiobooks and ebooks using borrowbox with the
library.

yes overdrive is an iPhone app actually I think it might be one word with
initial Oh and initial D. provided you have your NCBI username and password
you will then be able to login to their library. it may mean you having to
call the library to get these.

Hi Eleanor
Thanks. I must have a look at IBooks too.
I have never used Overdrive. Is that an IPhone app as well?
Joan Ann.

I use RNIB Library and use their overdrive app but I think that is
changing at the end of this year beginning of 2019. never been
successful with NCBI of a drive as it never seemed that there was any book
Calibre Library is another but again choice of books is fairly
limited. I also like using iBooks on my Apple devices. used to use
Kindle but again I think the books there could be got on I books.

Hi all
I enjoy reading and am interested to know the different ways people
access audio books and the devices you use to read them.
I am a member of audible and get 1 book a month. I listen to them on
the IPhone or on the Amazon Echo Dot. I find the audible app uses up
the battery on my phone quite quickly.
I also get Kindle books from Amazon and read them using the Kindle
app on the IPhone. Listening to VoiceOver reading a book takes a bit
of getting used to but it is fantastic to have access to a wide range
of books and not to have to wait for them to be released in audio.
I know that it is also possible to get audio books from your local
library using Borrowbox but I have never used this service so any
information would be good.
Kind regards
Joan Ann Brosnan.
