Tompkins
County Public Library and the YMCA of Ithaca will partner October 16
for a demonstration by the “Freeloading Librarians,” a group of library staff
members offering instruction, advice, and support for downloading free eBooks
and audiobooks to mobile devices.
The demonstration
will be held from 11:00 a.m. to 1 p.m. and include personal
assistance for downloading books to iPads, iPods, Kindles, Nooks and
smartphones through the Finger Lakes Library System’s free Overdrive Media
Console application.
Participants should
bring their library card or sign up for a free card at the event. Photo
identification with a current, local address is required to receive a library
card.
This program is
part of an ongoing series of “Freeloading Librarian” programs designed to
increase digital confidence and awareness among readers.
For more
information, contact Thomas Fredette at (607) 272-4557 extension 271
or tfredette@tcpl.org.
