Week 9 - Thing #22 Free eBooks and audio books

I've known about Project Gutenberg for a long time. It's been around since 1971, before most of us had ever even heard of the Internet. I did not, however, know that there were so many other sites from which you can download free ebooks. The thing I was most interested in, though, was the audio books that are available. LibriVox would be extremely useful for students who are struggling to read those classics from the high school reading list. Understanding Shakespeare is often dependent on hearing the words, so this would be a great resource for those English classes.
