Developed inside a 74-foot, 18-wheel tractor-trailer, this nationally touring vehicle is equipped with broadband Internet connected PCs, high definition monitors, premium sound systems, and a variety of portable media players. Interactive computer stations invite visitors to search Pasco County Library System’s digital media collection, use supported mobile devices, and sample eBooks, audiobooks, music, and video. Patrons can take advantage of this download service 24/7 when they visit the library’s website: pascolibraries.org. They can browse the collection of best-selling, new releases, or classic titles, and check out a digital title with a valid library card. Digital files can be enjoyed on a computer or transferred to supported mobile devices. At the end of the lending period, titles will automatically expire and are returned to the digital collection; there are never any late fees or damaged items!
The Digital Bookmobile is a service of the Pasco County Library System and is operated by OverDrive, Inc., a leading full-service digital distributor of eBooks, audiobooks, music, and video.
