Dansville Public Library has a new service available in cyberspace. Patrons in the 42 public libraries in Pioneer Library System can now listen to their books via a new dynamic collection of digital Audiobooks and eBooks at OWWL2go ( http://owwl2go.owwl.org ).
With a valid library card and pin #, OWWL cardholders can log onto the digital library website, install the free software on their PC, download popular and classic Audiobooks, and then transfer the titles to a portable MP3 player or even burn some titles to CD and listen in the car.
The growing collection includes bestsellers, romances, mysteries, classic literature and non-fiction. There are even children’s and teen titles so there is something for everyone.
‘This is an exciting opportunity for Pioneer Library System member libraries to expand their range of services to patrons,’ said Jennifer Morris, Executive Director. ‘We can now offer instant gratification in the form of Audiobooks and eBooks ‘ no waiting to listen to a new book. It’s just a download away.’ Last June a system-wide survey ranked downloadable Audiobooks and eBooks as the top new service requested by Pioneer patrons.
Patrons can check out up to three titles at a time, and at the end of the 14 day lending period, the Audiobooks and eBooks selected will expire from their PC and be automatically returned to the OWWL2go digital collection. There are no late fees or damage costs connected to the service. It’s free, easy-to-use, and best of all, available anytime from anywhere in the world.
Residents in Ontario, Wayne, Wyoming and Livingston Counties are encouraged to visit http://owwl2go.owwl.org to learn more about this service or to visit their local OWWL library for a library card and pin # so they can start downloading.
