There are a few audiobooks located in the Music Library (in Gorgas) and the McLure Education Library. You are welcome to stop by and take a look; please let us know if you need help finding them.

Here's one way to use Scout to search for audiobooks:

Go to the UA Libraries website and select "Scout"
Search for a keyword, title, author, etc.
Use the options on the left side of the page to limit your results (you might try Catalog Only, which limits results to items in the Libraries' collections, and Source Types>Audio)

If you aren't looking for anything in particular and just want to see what's available, this should give you an idea: Scout audiobook search (not all of the audiobooks may appear, though).

The Tuscaloosa Public Library has many more audiobooks in its collection and also offers downloadable audiobooks through a service called Overdrive.
