Step Three: Listen!

You can listen right from your computer or from a portable player.
You will need Windows Media Player v.9 or higher (or another program compatable with
Netlibrary audiobooks, click here to see a list) to play an audiobook on your computer.

Click here to download or upgrade Windows Media Player for free.

Simply Open Windows Media Player and select the file or begin the transfer
to your MP3 player.

You do not need to check in your audiobooks, they will be automatically
checked in on the due date.

If you have any questions, see Netlibrary's Frequently Asked Questions.

Unfortunatly, the North Merrick Public Library cannot assist you with problems encountered using these audiobooks on your computer or portable player.
