Excited about library ebooks?

…We hope you are because there is a lot to be excited about! Library2Go will be the home of our ebooks.

If you want to hit the ground running when library ebooks premier (probably mid-March) you should download Adobe Digital Editions now and check out how it works. What else is exciting? How about over 5000 ebook titles being available on the very first day!

If you don’t plan to do your reading strictly on a computer, here is a page showing which ereader devices are compatible with Library2Go. Likely even more ereaders will work with this service as long as they are Adobe Digital Editions compatible (check here for other possible ereader devices) .

The majority of our ebook titles will be available in ePub format, although some will be in PDF. The file size for the ePub titles is tiny, so they will download in a snap. The PDFs are a bit larger, but they can better handle images, charts, graphs and the like. Check out our ebooks LibGuide for more info as we get closer to the launch.

    I am looking for a method to view these DRM-protected files on an Android phone, but the available android apps seem to only be able to handle non-DRM files.

    http://www.epubbooks.com/ebook-readers has a list of readers and apps, but all the android ones can’t handle DRM..
