OverDrive Streaming Videos - NOW AVAILABLE

We have expanded our services with streaming video available to enjoy from the library's OverDrive website, http://cpls.lib.overdrive.com. Library card holders have instant access to streaming video with a growing catalog of digital feature films, documentaries, educational, children's favorites and more with a modern, easy-to-use viewing experience.

 

You may browse the video selection on the library's website, borrow titles with a valid library card, and stream on most mobile and desktop devices.  All videos will automatically expire at the end of the lending period. There are no late fees!
