To sign up, members of the community can visit omnilibraries.overdrive.com or download Libby, a one-tap reading app from OverDrive.

By entering their cell phone number, a secure verification service connects the user’s name and phone number to a physical address.  If that address is within the service area, users can instantly begin borrowing ebooks and audiobooks, for free, from the Library’s digital collection.
