We recently took our J audiobook collection down by about 50% to 188 titles, it's .32% of our total circulation. Our adult audiobook collection sits at 3486 and is about 2.5% of our total circ. We are letting go of the j audiobook collection after our renovation is complete and we move the department upstairs. Our Vox and Wonderbooks are still going out at a very healthy pace.

Our physical audiobooks are just sitting on the shelves while our downloadable offerings are circulating like mad. It's gotten to the point of considering not funding that collection and putting money toward our digital offerings. How has your circulation of these items been since Covid? What are your long term plans for this collection?
Thanks, Sara
