(Media-Newswire.com) - The Maine InfoNet Download Library has expanded to include a downloadable eBook collection, thanks to a grant from Davis Family Foundation and the financial support of member libraries.
Nearly 1,400 books spanning best-selling Fiction, Non-Fiction, YA and Children's content are now available as downloadable eBooks. This is in addition to the ever-growing collection of downloadable audiobooks.
Both the eBooks and audio books can be checked out and downloaded by patrons of participating libraries across Maine. Once the eBooks are checked out, they can be read on a computer or transferred to popular eReaders such as the Sony eReader, the Nook and the Kobo. Unfortunately, the Kindle eReader does not support this service and the eBooks cannot be transferred to that device. An app for transferring eBooks to the iPad is currently in development and is expected soon.
Suggestions for titles to add to both the eBook and audio book collections can be made at participating public libraries, or emailing Maine InfoNet directly by following the Help or Support links on the Download Library website.
