Audio Owl - Hundreds of Free Audio Books

Audio Owl is a great service for locating and listening to free audio books. Audio Owl catalogs public domain recordings of books that are in the public domain. Because the recordings are in the public domain anyone is free to download, listen to, and share the recordings. Audio Owl has arranged hundreds of recordings into an easy-to-browse collection. You can browse the collection by genre or search by title, author, or keyword. If you choose to browse by genre, Audio Owl presents all of the titles in a visually appealing display of book covers.

Applications for Education
Quite a few of the literature and reading teachers that I work with use audio recordings to support struggling readers. Often they are searching all over the web for audio recordings. Now, when they ask, I'll direct them to Audio Owl as the first place to look for free audio books.
