Playaway digital audio books

Introducing Playaway ® Audio Books

Rocky River Public Library now offers a new chapter in convenience, pre-loaded Playaway digital audio books. Each palm-sized unit is permanently loaded with an audiobook to make listening as simple as pressing a button.

According to Adult Services Manager, Evelyn Janoch, “If you’re thinking about purchasing an MP3 player to listen to books while exercising or traveling, but don’t want the hassle of having to download files, a Playaway is perfect for you. Just hit the button and you’re good to go!”

Not an MP3 or CD player, Playaway is a self-contained audio equivalent of a book. Half the size of a deck of cards, it is used with earphones, has a lanyard and a standard AAA battery which allows for immediate listening. Using clearly marked buttons, Playaway gives listeners the option of placing digital bookmarks and controlling the speed of a narrator’s voice, all while easily moving both forward and back through audio selections that can range from six to twenty-four hours. Almost any type of headphone or mobility accessory works with Playaway.
