Summer Reading: Going Digital with KPL

I mentioned audiobooks as a great way to multitask in my initial post about summer reading a few days ago. Did you know that the public library offers digital resources through two different services? Patrons can use Hoopla to stream or download audiobooks (as well as music and movies) and Overdrive (or another preferred reader/audio app or desktop) to download audiobooks and ebooks through the Midwest Collaborative for Library Services. This connects us to thousands of resources without ever having to leave home. If you don't have an internet connection, you can use the public, free wi-fi at KPL to download items to your device and enjoy them anywhere you plan to go. For both of these resources, a KPL library card is required for verification that you are a KPL patron and sign up is simple--just follow the listed steps. If you don't have a library card, signing up is easy. Learn how to obtain a card here.
