number to the song. Keep in mind that a short format
is better than a long one, particularly if you have an
iPod mini which has a narrow screen. You might want
to consider using the format “xx/yy”. “xx” is the disc
number and “yy” is the number of discs in total. Make
sure that you add a zero (0) to the number of the disc
if the total number of discs will be totalling more than
one digit (for example you will reach disc “10”). This
will ensure that all of the tracks will be correctly sorted
when you sort them by name.

 You might want to think about including a small note

in the comments field about where the audio book is
from (library or free source online).

 Move to the options panel. Make sure to check both

the remember playback position and the skip when
shuffling
boxes. The remember playback position
option will tell both iTunes and your iPod that the file
can be bookmarked. The skip when shuffling option
will ensure that audio tracks aren’t included when you
choose to play random groupings of songs.

 Use the above process for each of the audio books

that you want to import to your iPod.

 Once you have imported all of audio books to iTunes

you can transfer them to your iPod.
