Processing Request

Did you know you can read eBooks, listen to online Audiobooks, and browse through magazines on your smartphone, laptop, or desktop computer, in addition to an eReader? We also have digital comics, read-along eBooks, and educational videos for our younger audience, all with no associated fines or fees. Once the lending period is up on eContent, the items are automatically taken off your device. All you need is a library card in good standing (not expired & with less than $50 owed)!
