I actually buy a second copy (paper or drm-free pdf) if I decide I need to remember an audiobook or take notes. Even just being able to flip back to a previous section is something that paper books excel at. You get a sense of “what page something is on” (a sense of place) too, which helps the memory and referencing stick. Audio is for straight-through “reading” that doesn’t need to be as “active” because of that, and everything I read that needs to be remembered or studied does need more of an active reading approach
