Hoping to skirt Penguin’s library e-book restrictions by checking out a hot new title as a digital audiobook instead? Sorry, that strategy will no longer work as Penguin changed its library policies again. Titles released after November 14, 2011 and new releases will not be available, per instruction from the publisher. The latest restrictions come about two months after Penguin announced that it would no longer offer any new e-books through libraries. The cut-off date for new e-books and digital audiobooks is the same.
