SORA is an awesome resource that allows access to audio books and eBooks. Through a web browser, OR the SORA digital app, users can sign out audio books for up to 10 days.
Just like a physical library book, SORA audio books must be returned before others can use them. If you are not listening to your book, make sure it is returned so that others can listen to it.
Download the SORA app from the Apple App Store, or Google Play store. SORA is also available through any web browser.
