Library Closed!

Dear Patrons:
The library is closed until further notice.
Please do not use the book/movie drop during this time. We would just ask that you take good care of the library materials during this crazy time and we will let you know when the book drop will be open again. We will post it here, on our website www.aflibrary.org, our Facebook page, and through other local media. Thank you for all your amazing support, your patience and courtesy to us and each other during this stressful week.
YOU HAVE MADE US FEEL VALUED!
We will see you on the other side of this experience where no doubt, it will help us to appreciate all we have, each other and of course, 
A GOOD BOOK!
Kindra Munk and the Library Staff

Ebooks!

Don’t forget about our OverDrive (Libby) program! You can access a wide variety of e-books and audiobooks through this app during our closure. Here’s some info and reminders:

-Find help on how to get started at 

help.overdrive.com/…/articles/1481729-getting-started-with-…
idahodigital.lib.overdrive.com
-Check out e-books, audiobooks, periodicals, and some streaming videos with OverDrive.
-You will need your card number and your PIN. (if you don’t know your PIN, call the library to have it reset for you before Friday at 6:00 pm)
-Can be used on e-Readers, tablets, smartphones.
-You will need to download the free Libby or Overdrive app. A lot of users tell us Libby is easier and more user-friendly.
-You can check out 4 items at a time and have 5 items placed on hold.
-Items are downloaded on your device for 2 weeks and will automatically disappear after that time. You can renew an item once as long as it’s not on hold for another patron.

We hope you use and enjoy this great opportunity for reading while we’re closed!
