eBooks, Audiobooks & More

You may know by now that your library card checks out so much more than books off the shelf. For over a decade, most libraries across the United States have been able to offer eBooks, audiobooks, and even music, movies, and television to check out virtually! Some of the benefits of digital books include:

• No overdue fines - your checkout will return automatically
• 24/7 access to browse virtual shelves and check out
• Listen on the go with audiobooks
• Resize font if you need larger print to view

Browse this guide to see how you can get started reading, listening, and watching using your HMCPL card!
