Discovery Exercise:
- Explore World EBook Fair' site for FREE downloads from the Gutenberg Project. Also just explore the site - there's much to check out.
- Create a blog post about your findings.
- LibriVox, audiobook versions of copyright-free books from the Gutenberg Project. Read by volunteers. Started in August 2005 by Hugh McGuire. Check it out!
- British Library Online Gallery includes digitized original classics. An audio feature allows a visitor to have the book read aloud. Don't miss the original version of Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures Under Ground. Mozart's Musical Diary includes 75 audio excerpts. Take the tour and encourage your students and colleagues to do so too! This resource is AMAZING.
- Check out this site, too: "Best Places to Get Free Books"
- Don’t forget to ask your school librarian for local and on-line audio book resources. Many school libraries offer the ‘core’ novels in e-book and/or audio formats.
- And...your local public library. Does it have eBook and audioBook collections?
