We are researching library audiobook vendors and plans, as we are up for renewal on our annual contract/plan with TEI Landmark Audio. I wondered if any libraries would be willing to share their experiences with other audiobook vendors, good and bad? I am especially interested in if other companies offer an alternative to the advance purchase plan (where you have to spend down a balance within the 12 months or forfeit those funds), and how much of a discount to libraries are given. TEI Landmark just added a $1 surcharge on every audiobook purchase into the contract; I am curious if other companies are raising their costs as well? You can send me a direct email with thoughts at <mailto:alicia@colomapubliclibrary.net> alicia@colomapubliclibrary.net. Thanks in advance!
