We hope you have tried the new KY Libraries Unbound and been enjoying free digital downloads! A few reminders:
Just stop by or call us to receive your patron ID number you will need when registering to download (465-2562)
You will have to download the Overdrive Media Console...it just takes a minute!
You do not have to use an E-Reader like a Kindle or NOOK to download! Many Audio Books, Movies, and some Ebooks can be viewed on a Computer!
Some downloads are for 3 weeks but others are lifetime!
Some Audio Books can be downloaded and then burned to CD's...great for long car trips!
Need a tip for finding a good book to download?? If you can't find the book/author you want, follow these steps and you will surely find something good to read!
Choose what genre you like best, then go into the Advanced search. Choose their genre from the subject list. If you so desire, you can also limit your search by format, selecting the format that will work best on your device. Make sure you check the box at the bottom for 'only show copies available', and run your search. Any basic genre such as romance or mystery will turn up hundreds of available titles at any given time.
