June is Audiobook Month, and to celebrate the Audio Publishers Association is bringing together more than 100 authors and narrators to discuss audiobooks during the month on Twitter, Facebook, blogs and at bookstores.



Follow this link to a detailed survey (http://readersurvey.com/cgi/10002-lib.pl) that will allow the APA to compile your data and communicate the results to the producers of audiobooks, in conjunction with a sales and a consumer survey.


Every Tuesday in June, as part of www.AudiobookCommunity.com's "Get Caught Listening" group, APA publisher members are giving away audiobook segments that listeners can stream or download as MP3 files.
