There’s no cost to install, no in-app purchases, no subscription fees and no late fees. This is all thanks to your public library.

It’s all digital.

You’ll find ebooks and audiobooks to borrow, and some libraries have magazines and other great content to discover, too.

You can browse thousands of books.

From classics to the latest bestsellers and everything in between, your library hand-selects titles based on your community’s needs and reading preferences.

No late fees.

Borrowed titles are automatically returned for you at the end of their lending period. Now that’s service!

Available 24/7.

It doesn’t matter if it’s 2 AM or you’re about to board a long flight. Whenever and wherever, you can access your library’s digital collection.

Customize how you read or listen.

Adjust an ebook’s font size or lighting. Add a bookmark or make notes and highlights. Increase playback speed on audiobooks or set a sleep timer. The reading experience can be tailored specifically to you.
