    • Why did the library add another digital platform?

      By adding cloudLibrary to our collection, we are able to be members of the Louisiana cloudLink group which gives you access to 150,000+ eBooks and eAudiobooks from 27 other Louisiana libraries. More titles means more choices for you!

    • Will OverDrive/Libby continue to be offered?

      Yes. We have no current plan to discontinue use of OverDrive/Libby.
