eBooks From NetLibrary
Note to NetLibrary users: Although our downloadable audiobook service through NetLibrary has been replaced with a new service, our eBook collection will remain with NetLibrary.
The Daniel Boone Regional Library offers an online collection of 22,500 eBooks through a subscription to NetLibrary.
To use this service, you need to set up a free NetLibrary account at one of the DBRL libraries in Ashland, Columbia or Fulton. After you create an account, you can check out eBooks from any computer with access to the Internet, using your DBRL library card number.
Electronic books are books you can read on your computer. Rather than checking out a physical book from the library and taking it home, you check out and read these books online for up to four hours at a time. Most of the titles currently available are adult non-fiction or classic literature.
You can check out an electronic book anytime of the day or night from your computer. Once you've checked out an eBook, you can do keyword searching within it, create bookmarks and make personal notes. You can print excerpts from your book and there is also a dictionary available (American Heritage, 4th ed.) complete with illustrations.
Electronic books appear in the library catalog alongside traditional books and audio materials. The entries have a link to the NetLibrary site where you must log in.
