Our library has expanded our services with the addition of free downloadable audiobooks through a new digital media library. Patrons can check out and download titles anytime, anywhere by visiting the library home page and clicking on the green audiobook downloads graphic.
Library card holders may browse the collection of best-selling and classic titles. To check out, users will need a valid library card, a computer with an internet connection, and an email address. Once downloaded, digital titles can be enjoyed on the computer or transferred to a supported device, like an MP3 player. Many audio titles can also be burned to CD to enjoy in the car. At the end of the lending period, titles will automatically expire and are returned to the collection. There are never late fees or damaged materials.
“We are thrilled to offer our patrons another cost-saving use of their local library,” said Library Director Pier Lee. “With this free service, our busy patrons can listen to audiobooks while exercising on the trail, running errands in the car, or traveling on vacation over the summer months.”
Patrons will need to install free software, the OverDrive Media Console for audio titles, to use on a Windows operating system or Mac. The free and easy-to-use service is provided by the Peter Township Public library and powered by OverDrive, Inc, a leader in providing world-class infrastructure for downloading premium digital content.
