[Libs-Or] audiobooks to those who need them

Fri Apr 10 10:57:48 PDT 2020

JLG Digital <https://www.juniorlibraryguild.com/jlgdigital-free> is
offering free access. No limit to users for a title. Unfortunately, I don't
see a way to separate e-books and audiobooks on their site, but it's not
a large number of titles for high school so it wouldn't take long to scroll
through.

*Did you notice my font is large?* This is done for accessibility purposes.
It is recommended

 to use at least 14pt font size with Arial or Verdana fonts being the most
legible.
