Oh! And a useful tool.

Ah.

I always like to pass links along that I find useful and intriguing.
Thus, as we were discussing public domain books and the Wizard of Oz in class on Wednesday, I thought of this website:

Librivox.org

Librivox is a website dedicated to providing free audio-books from texts in the public domain for users to stream from the website, download directly, or subscribe to "chapter-a-day" podcasts.
Their vast collection of volunteer-read audio-books include fantasy classics like the Wizard of Oz and Alice in Wonderland.

Even if you're not looking for fantasy, this is a great resource and an awesome way to fill your iPod with literary love.

Thanks for the link, Laurie. Do you have any favorite Librivox readers/performers, or are there links on the site to help point visitors to the most popular or highly rated readers/performers?
