FY 2008 Database Discount: Playaway
New 20% Discount Offer

Not an MP3 or CD player and not software, Playaway is the self-contained audio equivalent of a book.  Half the size of a deck of cards, Playaway is packaged with earphones and a standard AAA battery to allow 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 book selections that can range from six to twenty-four hours. 

Additionally, Playaway has a universal headphone jack that works with almost any type of headphone or mobility accessory.

WHO

Eligible participants: all SJRLC members except school libraries. (Follett has the exclusive right to sell Playaways to schools and we are unable to change that.  See here for more info.)

HOW

  • Go to the Playaway website at http://www.playawaylibrary.com.
  • Investigate the FAQ section if you are new to Playaway.
  • Sign up if you do not have an account.
  • Buy as an individual library – NOT a consortia/buying group.
  • Shop online and order.
  • At end of order, for 20% off – put SJRLC in Notes/Special Instructions.

WHY

  • We work to save you money for the resources you want.
  • We are responding to member requests to obtain a discount for Playaways.
  • This is a logical complement to our SJRLC Audiobooks Consortium shared project.
