Love the library. I'm an audiobook fiend and I've listened to all sorts of things on my commutes.

I keep all the library cards for the different places I've ever lived in case I return for periods of time.

I haven't downloaded magazines or movies yet, but I really enjoy the Library2Go feature where I can check out ebooks and audio books on my tablet without ever leaving my home.

I've loved going to the local library and have always been a bit of a book worm!

I have a Henderson library card and download books to my iPad - it is saved me so much money (I read a lot of mysteries). iTunes started to charge 13.99-14.99 a book and it is too much for my budget. The only thing is you have to wait for some titles but the upside is I have downloaded other titles I might have been hesitate to purchase. The app Henderson uses is called overdrive.

No, I use the Overdrive Media Console App; it is in the App Store; once you have downloaded the app, follow the prompts to create an account;once in the Overdrive App, then open the Home menu, add a library (Henderson) and save it to your library list; then go to the Overdrive menu icon, tap bookshelf and then tap add a title; you will then be prompted to add your library card number and pin/password; this information is saved so you do not have to do it every time to search and add titles, etc. The Henderson library has a sheet of instructions, etc. You can sign up to put popular titles on hold and the title will be emailed directly into the app when it is available; you can also recommend titles for the library to purchase.

I did have to go to the library to get my card.
