YHPL, along with neighboring libraries, began offering free access to e-books last January.  The service has proven to be very popular.  And now, the system works with the Kindle!

To get started you’ll need your library card and PIN.  If you don’t know your PIN, contact the library.

Some devices allow for direct downloading (no PC required).  For a full list of compatible devices, check out the Device Resource Center.

Quick start guides are available for e-books and for Kindle e-books.

The My Help button leads to an interactive troubleshooting guide.
