LibriVox

I like listening to stories while doing chores and computer work, and I particularly like the short story collections that can be downloaded from LibriVox, and all for free. I also like the fact the site is operated by volunteers.

This is an absolutely marvelous and FREE audiobook site for public-domain work. A treasure trove for the hungry mind. All genres are represented and up to dozens of new works are added every day. Aspiring public-speakers and teachers and just nice people with nice voices, are welcome to contribute to this growing audio e-library, and you could be one of them too. You have never explored the world of audio books until you get into Librivox. Perfect for people who love to be read to sleep, or people who can't afford to buy a lot of books or who live far from libraries, or for people with vision problems or reading problems, or people who multitask and can't sit with a book cause there's too much else going on. True the voices are not all uniform from chapter to chapter on the longer works, but that also lends a charm to the project, revealing the communal and shared effort and absolutely human enterprise of passing down books from one generation to the next. Check out Librivox today, you won't be sorry!
