Everyone already knows that audiobooks make any road trip better…but now the Audio Publishers Association (APA) is taking the perfect combination of “audiobooks + road trips” to a whole new level! We proudly present the AudiobookMobile, a custom-wrapped vehicle that will travel to five cities in the northeastern United States August 30-September 27, introducing the audio format to new listeners. Perhaps it will visit a city—and a library or book festival—near you! Find more information, including the official press release, on the APA’s website.
