Patrons can borrow eBooks and audiobooks using the digital lending service through the cloudLibrary.
Books may be borrowed for 14 days. At the end of the loan period, the books stops working and you can delete it from your device. You can check out up to four titles at a time. That number includes eBooks AND audiobooks. Most books can be returned early if you finish it early, freeing up your account for another book.
Please note:
eBooks are borrowed the same way as print books: only one patron at a time can borrow a book. Because of high demand, many books will have waiting lists, and you can place holds on the books you want. When your hold is available, you will be notified by a pop-up notice or by email, your choice.
