We’re about to kick off another season of Summer Reading with lots of reading and fun entertainment! One way we’re celebrating is by increasing the number of hoopla titles FDL cardholders can check out from 4 to 6 per month! That means readers can borrow eBooks, audiobooks, and graphic novels from hoopla to read and count toward their summer reading goals. With hoopla, cardholders can also instantly stream movies, TV shows, or music to a mobile device or computer. Enjoy 6 titles each month, with an increased selection of titles and no holds or late fees!

If you haven’t tried out hoopla yet, it’s easy to get started! The free mobile app is available to download in the App Store and the Google Play store. Register through the app or at hoopladigital.com with your email address, password, and library card information. Find books and movies by browsing the collection or use the search feature to find a specific title. Borrowed titles can be read/played immediately after check out, and will return automatically at the end of the lending period (eBooks/audiobooks/comics – 21 days; movies/TV episodes – 3 days; music – 7 days). Movies and TV shows can be streamed to mobile devices or smart TVs via Chromecast, AppleTV, AndoidTV, FireTV, or Roku.

As always, ask a librarian for assistance if needed, and enjoy the access to great digital content from hoopla and FDL!
