NOTE: OverDrive is the primary source for digital books for over 90% of the public libraries in North America. Worldwide, it's being used by approximately 22,000 public libraries. Library collections are accessed through the Libby app after you've obtained your library card. Additionally, your library may also offer services from other vendors that are not associated with OverDrive.

NOTE: Hoopla is being used by nearly 10,000 public libraries in four countries. Quite frequently, libraries will NOT include audiobooks and eBooks because they are more expensive than video services. Library collections are accessed through the Hoopla app after you've obtained your library card. Additionally, your library may also offer services from other vendors that are not associated with Hoopla.

Reciprocal Borrowing Agreements
Quote:
|
If your library's collection is small or weak in genres you read or listen to, check to see if they have reciprocal borrowing agreements with neighboring library systems. If they do, you can get free library cards from those libraries. See King County and Seattle for examples.
|
Non-Resident Library Cards
Quote:
|
If reciprocal borrowing agreements are not an option for you, consider getting a non-resident library card. This option is a paid service. Prices and requirements for joining vary for each library.
