Spring break is right around the corner and it's time to be thinking about finding something to read. Whether looking for an ebook or emagazine to read on your portable device, an audiobook to listen to as you catch some rays, or a totally retro hard copy book, your Elmbrook libraries can help you out.
Overdrive eBooks & Audiobooks
Elmbrook's Overdrive collection has been growing steadily over the years and now has over 6000 fiction and nonfiction ebooks and 1500+ audiobooks. While you can stream and read directly on any internet-connected device, most download the app to a portable device (e.g. iPad, smartphone, Kindle), select a title, and read or listen wherever they are.
Flipster eMagazines (high school and middle school libraries only)
Similar to Overdrive, Flipster allows you to read magazines online or you can download the app to your portable device, connect to your school library, and read entire magazines cover to cover.
School Library Online Catalog
And of course, if you don't want to worry about recharging or screen glare, check out one of the thousands of hard copy books in our school libraries by browsing the online catalog and stopping by your library to check out a book.
You can access all of these resources from your school library home pages. Happy reading!
