E-LIBRARIES
As much as we'd like to be open every time you want us, 24/7 service just isn't possible - or is it? Our doors may not be always be open but you can still check out materials! Need a soothing audiobook to battle 2am insomnia? Want a TV show to binge watch on a sick day? Looking for a soundtrack for your next workout? We've got you covered! NMPL offers TWO free e-libraries available for all patrons to access with their library card! Read on to get started borrowing!
HOOPLA
NMPL is thrilled to offer an incredible streaming service, available for FREE to all patrons with a library card! Hoopla Digital is a database of digital videos (movies and TV shows), music, audiobooks, ebooks and comics that can all be checked out for free by any library patron. Hoopla is a simultaneous access provider--there are no holds; everything is available on demand. Patrons of North Manchester Public Library can check out digital content up to four times per month by simply downloading the free hoopla app, then creating a login and inputting their library card number.
