Hi David,
Not really a satisfactory answer for you but:

i)                    I have been asked about audio-books for the library – but not often

ii)                   We publicise those made available via one of our database subscriptions

https://vle.bruford.ac.uk/mod/resource/view.php?id=48539

iii)                 I have an old cassette collection which I had been wondering about converting

into a more accessible format – whether a bought audio-book, or via digitising

but there has not been a great demand for this

iv)                 Interestingly, the few times the cassettes have gone out on loan is when they

have been borrowed by members of the public libraries consortium we belong to.

Best wishes,
Frank Trew
College Librarian
