OVERVIEW
The Bolton Public Library offers eBooks, downloadable audiobooks, and more from FIVE different vendors! Check out the helpful chart below to decide which vendor is right for you. 
​
eBooks and eAudiobooks "check out" like regular library materials. You borrow them for a period of time, usually 14 days, but digital items don't earn overdue fees — when they are due back, they simply leave your device and become available for the next interested patron. Like other library items, there are a limited number of digital copies of any given item at a time. 


HOOPLA is brought to us by the Boston Public Library and requires a BOSTON PUBLIC LIBRARY E-CARD.

To get started using any of these services, click one of the links above!
​Scroll down to find details about each of our vendors.
