Have you tried our e-book or e-audio book service? |
|
Cambridgeshire Libraries is pleased to offer its new e-audio download service, provided by One Click Digital. This service is completely free and accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
There are no waiting lists and the hundreds of bestselling audiobooks are compatible with iPod, MP3 players, tablets (e.g. iPad and Android) and personal computers.
Library members can also download e-books onto your computer or e-book reader. Much like the e-audio download service, it's completely free. You can download up to four e-books (including one request) and there are no overdues, as loans expire after three weeks.
