eBook ReaderDownload ebooks, audiobooks and videos anywhere, anytime, to any computer. You can even transfer the audio books and videos to your MP3 player or iPod, and take them with you - wherever you go! eBooks can be transfered to various readers like the Sony Reader, the Kobo or even downloaded to the iPhone.

The Perth County Information Network (PCIN), along with four Waterloo area library systems, have purchased this downloadable service called downloadLibrary. All you need is a computer with Internet access, a valid Perth County Information Network library card, and your library PIN (generally the last four digits of your phone number). The libraries in PCIN are Stratford Public Library, Perth East Public Library, St Marys Public Library, and West Perth Public Library.

If you don't have a computer at home or if you have dialup Internet, use the download station at SPL to download and transfer audiobooks to your mp3 player or iPod.
