The web offers a lot of resources that can provide us with digital forms of publications such as e-books and audio books. An example of this is Librophile, a website that compiles both free and paid audio books from LibriVox and Audible. Librophile puts these invaluable resources in one place so you can find them and access them easily.
The browsing areas for free and paid audio books in Librophile are separated which is convenient because they then don't mix up with each other. You can browse the titles one by one or you can use the search bar if you have a particular title in mind. You can also browse the books by genre or by popularity.
For free books, you have the option of downloading the audio book by chapter or in one whole zip file. You can also subscribe to the free iTunes feed of the audio. In addition, you can also open its e-book counterpart in another window.
As for the paid books, the site lets you preview a chapter or sample of the book before you buy them.
