The State Library of Kansas and Belleville Public Library are
pleased to announce the Kansas EZ Library of digital books available to all
Kansas library users.
OneClickDigital for audiobooks can be accessed at this
site www.kslib.info/digitalbooks. Users must have a Kansas Library card that
can be requested at the Belleville Public Library.
Regular users of the download service will find the new
interface with OneClickDigital much simpler and faster to use. Video and written tutorials are available at www.kslib.info/digitalbooks to
assist individuals in using the new service.
In addition, the State Library will begin offering an ebook
solution through 3M Cloud Library soon.
Updates for the beginning of this service can be found on the www.kslib.info/digitalbooks site.
The Kansas EZ library page also features other free audiobook and ebook
resources available to Kansas readers.
On Dec. 5, Kansas ended its six-year contract OverDrive, a
source for downloadable books. The books previously available for checkout
through OverDrive and possibly on hold for patrons will no longer be
accessible. However, thanks to the diligence of the State Library, many of the
titles popular with customers have been transferred to the new vendors’
platforms, and now are available through the two new services.
