SYNC YA Lit Into Your Earphones: Free Audiobook Download Program

SYNC is offered 2 FREE audiobook downloads each week this summer to YA readers and listeners. http://www.audiobooksync.com/

(The publishers have given us amazing audiobook pairings in hopes of building the LISTENING audience for YA. No gathering of personal marketing info. No gimmicks. Just free.)

A fab YA title is paired with a Classic (often assigned for Summer Reading) along some grand and nefarious connection.
For example:
THE HUNGER GAMES by Suzanne Collins
THE LOTTERY by Shirley Jackson

The titles are delivered via Overdrive and can be used on almost any player.

All the titles have been donated by publishers as an audience builder for audiobooks. Why NOT listen to Lit? Right?

There are all sorts of tools for bloggers, twitter-ites, and librarians to chatter about SYNC here: http://www.audiobooksync.com/info.html
