Kid And Kid

Hi I ordered a bunch of make your own cards to use with library content but I don’t know how! I have Libby and overdrive. I’m in the USA. Thanks in advance for your help!

You can’t download from those.

I get audio CDs from the library. If your library is part of a network, you can place whatever you want on hold and it can come from another library. Then I rip the CD onto my computer. You will need a CD drive to do this. Legally, you will need to delete the content once you return your content to the library. My library does not have late fees so I keep the content as long as we are interested in it!

Keep in mind that there is TONS of free, legal content out there that is great for MYO on a budget. Podcasts are our favorite to MYO. If you do want to MYO library content, you can check out audiobooks on CDs and download that way. I bought an external CD drive specifically for this use because my kiddo blows through content so fast and doesn’t mind deleting/returning when she’s done.

I did record myself reading short stories and made card out oc it. I will try to ask other family members to do the same.

If you want more classical books, librivox is a free download source. We have gotten allice in wonderland and rageddy Ann, etc. Google books also has great prices if you are looking to buy/own. We use myo for books we cannot get on yoto. Like pippi Longstocking, so the cost evens out if not cheaper or free.

Yes, order CDs through your library or inter library loan through LINK+.

Someone mentioned freegal music recently. If your library has it you can download 5 tracks per card per week. We got the Bluey album this week.
