A note about eBook availability

The Library District has been working hard to develop a robust collection of eBooks and downloadable audiobooks. We realize how popular these are. However, a relatively small proportion of all books published are offered to libraries in digital format.

Some major publishers do not make their publications available to libraries as eBooks at all.

Before you request it...

Before submitting your request, you might want to:

  • Check whether the Library already owns the title or has ordered it. Use search box above, or link to the online Catalog.
  • Interlibrary loan the title, if it was published more than six months ago.
  • Know that the Library purchases most best-sellers and has a "standing order" list of authors whose new titles are almost always purchased. See the authors list.
