Gainesville, Fla. – The Alachua County Library District is partnering with our eBook vendor to provide access to digital books and audiobooks to Alachua County residents who do not have library cards.

After registering, users can download the appropriate app to their smartphones or tablet to access more than 77,000 titles on 132 different topics, including children and teen books. Visit www.aclib.us/ebook-help for instruction to download the Libby and OverDrive apps to read or listen to books on tablets and phones.
Access to these resources will continue through June 30. After that date, participants will be invited to register for a regular library card.
