Stumper for March:

Can you show me how to find a list of audio books in Italian that can be borrowed from other libraries? I want fiction or nonfiction, not instructional.

Answer: Using the expert search on WorldCat search for "fiction or nonfiction not instructional". Limit the language to "Italian". Limit the type to "Sound Recordings" and the subtype to "CD Audio".

Thanks to Deb Hiett from the Boxford Town Library for that answer.

Stumper for April:
