Downloading eBooks

Browse the eBooks catalogue from the app. You can download up to 15 eBooks onto your device for an initial loan period of 2 weeks. You can renew eBooks twice. Once an eBook has expired, it will automatically disappear from your device.

Listening to eAudiobooks

You can browse the audiobooks catalogue from the app and select up to 15 titles to borrow. You can download the audiobook chapter by chapter. Chapters that you have listened to can be deleted to free up space on your device.

Reserve eBooks and eAudiobooks

Reservations are free and can be placed against any eBook or eAudiobook title that is on loan to another borrower. The date that will become available will be listed. Your reservation guarantees your place in the queue. If a title is returned early by another borrower, you will be informed.
