If you have a large Audible library with loads of books, having a spreadsheet with all the titles that you own can be very helpful.

It can help you with listening plans, organizing your Audible library, and analyzing the library to find books in a series that you may have missed.

Unfortunately, the Audible app has no option to export Audible library list. I contacted Audible customer support and they reiterated what’s already available online.

Fortunately, there are plenty of third-party solutions to export the Audible library list. I tried them to find the best options and here they are.

4 Methods to Export Audible Books List

This list has 3 free options and 1 paid option, that comes with plenty of additional features.

  1. Audible Library Extractor Extension

If you select Goodreads format, the downloaded spreadsheet will include Goodreads relevant columns.

How to Print a List of My Audible Books?

Now that you have a list of your Audible library titles, you can print the list after making the essential changes.

The downloaded file contains additional data that may not be relevant to you. I simplified my spreadsheet by removing unnecessary columns and keeping only the following:

  • Book Number
  • Book Title
  • Author
  • Narrator
  • Length of audiobook

Once you have deleted the unwanted data and made any other changes you want, you can print the file. To ensure the data fits neatly on one page, check the ‘scale to fit’ option.

If your spreadsheet includes more columns, consider printing in landscape orientation for better results.

  • Available for free
  • You can export the Library list, Collections, ISBN, and Wishlist
  • Download the library list as raw data, spreadsheet, or Goodreads-compatible spreadsheet

Cons

  • Basic extension
  • No additional features like format conversion
