DETROIT LAKES (KDLM) – The Detroit Lakes Public Library has made it easier than ever to borrow books, music and even movies with the addition of digital service, Hoopla.
The library added Hoopla in May, giving library patrons unlimited access to its collection of digital media.
Greta Guck, Director of the Detroit Lakes Public Library says the service is free, but a library card is required, “You do need a library card, but once you have a card you can access Hoopla anywhere you have internet access; on your phone, a desktop computer, tablet, you can even use a smart tv.”
Hoopla has more than 500,000 content titles which is paid for by library systems, using a “per circulation transaction model”. To get started visit hoopladigital.com
