Using The Library At A Distance
With winter finally making an appearance in Iowa, you might find it a little harder to get to the library, or maybe you just don't want to brave the cold. Either way, you can still use the library from home with NEIBORS and Zinio.
With NEIBORS you can check out digital audio books and e-books 24 hours a day from anywhere you have an internet connection. You can sign in through the IPL website, using your library card number and password (usually your phone number). There is even an app available for android and apple devices called the Overdrive Media Console. Install the app and you can have books and audio books on your phone or tablet anywhere you go.
If you would rather read magazines, give Zinio a try. This service lets you download and read digital issues from over 50 magazines. There's no limit to how many you can checkout, and there are never any due dates or late fees. Set up your account with the IPL's access key (call or visit the library to get the access key) and simply checkout the issues you want to read. Zinio also has an app for android and apple devices.
Click the links above for more information and downloadable tip sheets. And of course, if you have any questions feel free to call the library at 334-2470.
