There are a few audiobooks located in the Music Library (in Gorgas). 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 offers library cards for free to UA students, You can register for an E-card on the Tuscaloosa Public Library Website, which provides access to E-book and Audiobook collections through Libby, Hoopla, and Overdrive. You can also present your student ID at the Public Library to get a full-access library card.
