Kindle Goes to the Library!
Your library card is your ticket to the world, the world of e-books! E-books, the newest craze in e-media, are electronic books that can be downloaded onto your personal computer, or an e-reading device. Your Lewis & Clark Library is excited to announce that our E-books are now Kindle compatible.
"Library patrons can download many of their favorite authors and titles to their Kindle for free, all you need is a library card!" explains Karla Ritten, Collections Management Librarian.
The Lewis & Clark Library has offered downloadable audiobooks for a couple of years but recently was able to expand the service, and selection of e-books, when Kindle became compatible through the OverDrive console.
Montana Library2Go is now offering Kindle e-books through the Lewis & Clark Library. Patrons have access to the downloaded items for two weeks and at the end of the check out period, the selections will lock and the patron will no longer have access to them, meaning patrons can skip the hassle of returning a book to the library.
Downloading an e-book to your Kindle is easy. Simply select "Audiobooks and eMedia" from the left hand menu on the home page; then select MontanaLibrary2Go and begin browsing. You need your library card and your Amazon account login information. Once you've selected a title for check out to your Kindle, it is ready for you at Amazon. Log in to your Amazon account and the title(s) you've selected will be downloade to your Kindle. The only stipulation that Kindle is placing on downloads is that you must use a wi-fi connection rather than 3G for this service.
The Lewis & Clark Library has partnered with numerous Montana libraries to provide this fantastic and versatile service to our patrons. "The MontanaLibrary2Go collection is continually expanding, so patrons should check out the selections regularly to see what new titles have been added," encourages Ritten.
