eBooks and eAudiobooks allow patrons to take the library with them in the palm of their hand or on the screen of their computer. Although ebooks aren't for everyone, they provide a great option for those who are unable to make it into the library on a regular basis, individuals who benefit from being able to adjust font size, style, and more while reading, and those who like the convenience of carrying their book in their pocket. Through a variety of systems, NPDL is able to offer over 50,000 titles for patrons to access 24/7. With some of the systems, users need a valid NPDL library card and PIN number, however some are accessible without a library card.
