Why this exists
Free audiobooks are scattered across the web.
LibriVox has the recordings. Internet Archive has the files. Loyal Books has another index. Project Gutenberg has the text. Book Search Party puts them in one search result, then sends you to the source that actually hosts the audio.
When a free recording is not enough, we show a clearly labeled paid option from Audiobooks.com. The free results always come first.
Questions
Before you press play
Are the audiobooks really free?
Yes. The free results link to public-domain recordings hosted by LibriVox, Internet Archive, Loyal Books, or companion text from Project Gutenberg. Book Search Party does not host audio files.
What does public domain mean?
A public-domain work is free from copyright restrictions in the relevant jurisdiction. LibriVox recordings are released into the public domain, and the texts they read are public domain too.
Why show paid audiobooks?
Some listeners want a newer title, a professional studio recording, or an app with syncing and offline playback. Paid options are labeled and placed after the free sources.
Do I need an account?
No account is needed to search. Free sources usually let you stream or download without signing in. Paid retailers require an account for a trial or purchase.
