Playaway
The All-In-One Audiobook
What's not to love about Playaway
When it comes to audiobook formats, Playaway easily tops the list with its High Definition Audio and simple, portable all-in-one format. Unlike CDs, Audio Cassettes or Downloads, Playaway does not need a separate player. Playaway comes pre-loaded and ready to use with HD Audio content, earbuds and a battery—making it simple for your patrons to use and your library to circulate.
The audiobook format for everyone (and we mean everyone)!
- Kids can pair a Playaway with the print edition of a book to improve literacy, comprehension, and retention. Playaway levels the playing field and creates equal access to books for all kids.
- Seniors can integrate audiobooks into their active lifestyle, without the need for special equipment or technical knowledge, and their audiobook format isn't limited to the car or CD player.
- Visually impaired patrons are no longer confined to a large player in order to enjoy audiobooks. Playaways have been successfully integrated into public libraries and libraries for the blind to provide a unique way to listen to books.
- Busy moms, hurried business travelers, and on-the-go professionals will love that they now have a format that can be enjoyed without the need for electricity or content transfer.
The easiest way to circulate audio
- Budget-friendly, low cost per circ (over 1,000 times per title!)
- Frees staff time, low maintenance (no pieces or parts to get lost or damaged)
- No risk of obsolescence when the next piece of technology comes out
- Satisfaction guaranteed with Playaway's one-year replacement warranty.
