I’ve heard recently about a product called Playaway®. Does Ingram carry this product? If so, can you please tell me where I can find more information?--Diane in Denver

Hi Diane,

Yes, Ingram is distributing Playaway, the self-contained audiobook. Playaway’s all-in-one format—no CDs to count, no hassles of downloading, and no other equipment required—make it very patron-friendly, the small size and portability make it very convienient. You can find a list of Playaway titles on ipage® by clicking the link on home page. Best of all, Ingram is currently offering a special discount of 25% on this product.


Sincerely,
