[HAZEL Margaret E]

Thank you, Peter, for doing this legwork.  Let's all let them know that
it's an interest for us.  Maybe they'll consider that in constructing a
pricing structure, if they know how big a customer-base they will have.

Dear Peter Schoenberg,

Thank you for contacting Audible.com.

I apologize for the delay in this response. At this moment, we are
reworking the Library program, to insure a low cost means of getting
downloadable book files to Libraries. Due to this, we are not creating
new Library accounts (public and school). The estimated time right now
is between 3-6 months for the new program to be available. Do you wish
to be put on a list to be contacted when this is ready? If you do,
please respond back to this email message with the name of the Library,
plus a contact number if you would prefer a phone call notification. If
you have any other questions, please respond back to this email message
or you can call me directly using 1-888-890-4070, x2831. I am normally
here between 12-9PM EST M-F. Thank you for contacting Audible and have a
great day!
