Like reading or listening to books via a digital format?
The library makes available loads of eBooks and audiobooks through digital databases like cloudLibrary and hoopla. Easy to use, these digital resources allow library cardholders to check out items that can be downloaded to computers or digital devices for some reading and listening digital downtime.
The library has recently added another platform to enhance its digital offerings. Although cloudLibrary remains our go-to database for eBooks and eAudiobooks, RbDigital is now available to Lafourche Parish Public Library cardholders.
RbDigital will allow library cardholders access to exclusive Recorded Books audiobooks titles from bestselling authors such as Danielle Steel, Iris Johansen, and more. So if you can’t find a popular author on one of the library’s other databases like cloudLibrary, check out RbDigital.
RbDigital is also a great place to search for classic titles in both eBook and eAudiobook formats from authors as varied as Charlotte Bronte and H. G. Wells to Charles Dickens and Henry James. This could come in handy if you are a fan of classic literature or a student or the parent of a student who needs to get his or her hands on a classic title for a school assignment.
The database is easy to use.
To get started, just go to your app store and install the RbDigital eBook app, which is available for iOS, Android, and Kindle Fire. An eAudiobook app is available for iOS, Android, Kindle Fire, and Nook.
For those wanting to use RbDigital on your computer, use Adobe Digital Editions to download eBooks and RbDigital Media Manager to download eAudiobooks.
Not only easy to use, RbDigital is also free to use with your library card.
Problems getting started?
Call or drop by your local library branch for help if you run into any difficulties using this newest database or any of the library’s digital services. One thing to note is that if you previously had a OnePlay account with us, that information is your log-in for RbDigital. If you need help logging in, just ask us for help!
Our library staff members are knowledgeable and always eager to assist.
