Free audio of Shakespeare monologues

Librivox is a project dedicated to creating and publishing online free audio versions of public domain texts. Although they don't seem to have any complete Shakespearean texts, they do have a number of monologues and a couple dozen sonnets. While not a perfect resource -- Librivox texts are read by volunteers, and hence the quality of their recordings varies -- this might be the tool you need to keep the language, themes, and emotional affect of these texts at the front of your mind as you prepare for the midterm.
