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, FLIPSTER, AND KANOPY are 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!

If you're new to eReading and need a hand getting set up, we're always happy to help! Bring your device with you to the library during operating hours and we'll help you get set up to take advantage of our vast collection!

*IMPORTANT* To download e-books from most of our vendors, you will need to know the PIN associated with your account. Don't have a PIN? Call us to get set up. To download resources from HOOPLA, FLIPSTER, AND KANOPY you must have a BOSTON PUBLIC LIBRARY E-CARD.
