From the Freegal Files

If you are unfamiliar with Freegal, it is a service provided through the DC Public Library that allows you to download three mp3s per week, which are then yours to keep forever — they do not need to be returned and they will never expire.

In honor of Black History Month, check out Freegal's collection of Jazz classics.  We have highlighted some great selections here, but you can find more by logging into Freegal with your DC library card and selecting "Jazz" under the genre tab.
