Borrow a library book on a device
Borrow a library book and start reading it in a minute, for nothing.
Public libraries lend e-books. You borrow with the card you already have and read on any device.
The loan ends on its own when the time is up. Nothing to take back, no late fee.
Key points
- Your library card borrows e-books at no cost
- The loan ends by itself, so nothing is late
What to remember
- Available now means it is yours in one press.
- A borrowed e-book takes itself back.
Try this
Search your library’s name and the words e-books to find its app. Your card number is on the back.
