Since all full time 5th-grade students in Columbia Public Schools have been issued iPad Minis, we have been seeing many young folks using these new tablets. These iPads not only are good for schoolwork, but also for accessing some great eBooks from DBRL. The library offers a wide array of electronic resources such as films, music, magazines and, of course, eBooks that can be accessed via devices such as iPads as long as you live in our service area.
Our most popular eBook service is Overdrive. To use Overdrive on your iPad, you only need to follow these five quick and easy steps to download the app.
