2. Choose Elgin County Library, and login with your library card number and 4 digit PIN.
3. Search for an author, title etc.
5. Once you've found a great book, click Borrow - the title will automatically download (if you are connected to wifi).  
6. Pro Tips:  As you listen, the app will track where you left off. 
Also, setting your 'Preferences' can save searches for only books available now or only audiobooks.  These stay until you change them.
