Library cardholders can instantly explore, borrow and enjoy dynamic content on their smartphones, tablets and computers. Specifically, The Beaufort County Library System will soon feature public availability of thousands of movies, television shows, music albums, eBooks, audiobooks and comics, all available for mobile and online access through a new partnership with Hoopla Digital (hoopladigital.com). Beginning in October, Beaufort County Library System card holders can download the free hoopla digital mobile app on their Android or IOS device or visit hoopladigital.com to begin enjoying thousands of titles – from major Hollywood studios, record companies and publishers – available to borrow 24/7, for instant streaming or temporary downloading to their smartphones, tablets and computers. Each cardholder will be allowed 10 check-outs per month.
“We strive to be an integral resource for our community,” says Library Director Ray McBride. “This is done through strategic partnerships like our new relationship with Hoopla Digital, which enables our community members to instantly stream thousands of new titles to their devices. The easy-to-use interface and elimination of late fees enables us to satisfy many of our patron’s needs in a modern way.”
The Library System will launch the Hoopla service to cardholders on Monday, October 12. Library cards are free to Beaufort County residents and property owners. It’s quick and easy to receive a library card – just bring proof of Beaufort County residency or property ownership to any of our five branch locations.
