If you’re a fan of NPR, you’ll love books-on-cd that public radio staff have produced. Compilations such as Driveway Moments<\/a>, Road Trips <\/a><\/strong><\/em>and Holiday Favorites<\/a><\/strong><\/em> are hodge-podges of previous stories.<\/p>\n

(David Sedaris<\/a><\/strong><\/em> got his start at NPR and is in a class by himself).<\/p>\n

Some, like This I Believe<\/a><\/strong><\/em>, can be downloaded\u00a0to your MP3 player. If you’re a Davenport Public Library cardholder you can access our WILBOR<\/a><\/strong> audiobooks via our website.<\/p>\n
