Free audiobooks!


Every summer, Sync partners with multiple organizations to offer free audiobooks for teens 13+ for eight weeks. Most of these books are considered Young Adult (YA) but really, the books are all over the map. From non-fiction to plays, anthologies to Shakespeare, Sync Audiobooks brings a variety of texts to a YA and YA-at-heart audience. 

How does it work?
  • Program runs April 30th-July 29th. 
  • You can sign up to receive alerts, via text or email, and get two audiobook links each week.
  •  From there, you can choose to download the audiobooks via the Sora app (available via Google Play or Apple Stores). 
  • These links expire after 7 days.

First up, available from April 30th to May 6th:

On a personal note: I've participated in this program for the last 3-4 years. These audiobooks are high quality and a great way to discover new genres, authors, and series. I look forward to this program all year! The process to download them can be a little clunky so please reach out to a librarian for help. And happy reading!!!
