If you get a pop-up with options to Open, Run or Save your loan when you download, make sure that you select Save, otherwise the eAudiobook will not save to your computer properly. On the Download page choose to download an eAudiobook either in a single download or in parts.

This will take you to the Loan Successful page. When you have found an Audiobook you want, click on the book cover, and then 'Confirm eAudiobook Loan'. Note that by default, the website shows the 'Featured' tab, which is a very small list - click on All Releases or Browse by Genre to see more. Search for a book or use the tabs to browse either eBooks or eAudiobooks, and then target age group.
