The Matawan Aberdeen Public Library is now offering our patrons a new service called Freading. Freading allows you to download ebooks without having to be put on a wait list! Because Freading allows simultaneous check outs of the same ebook, you will never have to wait for someone to return the book first.
What are some of the other benefits of Freading?
- There are over 20,000 titles to choose from in many different genres.
- It's compatible with with many devices such as the Kindle Fire, the Nook devices, Kobo, iPad, and many more.
- Freading works on Adobe Digital Editions, just like eLibraryNJ, so there is no need to download additional software.
You can access the site by clicking the Freading icon located on the homepage of our website, or you can just click here. Once you login with your library card you'll be able to use your tokens to download books. Tokens? Each ebook is worth 1, 2 or 4 tokens, assigned by the publisher and clearly displayed on the book cover. You'll receive 4 tokens per week to use to checkout books so you can checkout 1 ebook worth 4 tokens or 2 ebooks worth 2 tokens each, etc. Any unused tokens roll over to the next week, but all tokens expire at the end of every month. The checkout period is 2 weeks and you are able to renew the ebook one time.
Give Freading a try and let us know what you think!
