As of May 1, 2023, hoopla and cloudLibrary borrows will be limited to 10 per month. Patrons will be able to borrow up to 10 titles each month from either service.

Hoopla offers free access to a vast collection of audiobooks, ebooks, comics, movies, tv, magazines, and music, straight to your digital devices. These titles are available immediately, without putting anything on hold.

CloudLibrary offers a large collection of audiobooks and ebooks available on demand or to place on hold. Use the app to search by genre, topic, or customize your own virtual bookshelf.

In addition to these two services, the library also provides free access to Libby, the Overdrive app, which offers a wide variety of audiobooks and ebooks available for use. These titles can be placed on hold, or patrons can search for available titles to download immediately. Patrons can enjoy up to 15 titles per month on the Libby app or through Overdrive.

Each of these apps are available in the App Store or on Google Play. To get started or for helpful tutorials, visit CRLibrary.org/ebooks-audiobooks.
