Did you know that we offer an extensive collection of FREE digital downloads for e-readers and mobile devices, including e-books, audiobooks, e-magazines, music and movies?
Here is a run-down of our most popular digital services and what they offer - all available for FREE with your Library card:
- Overdrive offers e-books, audiobooks, music and e-flicks. There is also an Overdrive eReading Room: Kids Collection and an Overdrive eReading Room: Teen Collection.
- Freading offers no waiting! This service allows for multi-user downloads so they are always available; you never have to wait for a title. Cardholders receive three downloads per week.
- Hoopla also offers no waiting! Instantly borrow e-books, comics, audiobooks, movies and TV series, and music album content that can be streamed or downloaded to a mobile device. The interfaces are intuitive and easy to use.
- Freegal Music is a downloadable music service offering access to Sony Music’s catalog of legendary artists. Cardholders can download five songs a week from 10,000 labels. Cardholders can keep the songs in their music libraries.
- Zinio is a digital magazine service with hundreds of magazines to view online on your PC, tablets and smart phones.
Those are the top five, but we have many, many more. To see a complete list of our digital resources, go to our e-books and more page.
And, if you need help, the Library also offers assistance learning how to use and download e-books to your device. You can sign up for one-on-one training, attend a class, or pop in during one of the scheduled drop-in sessions. Check our calendar for available learning sessions, or contact your local library.
