All your library needs in your pocket

Going to public libraries is an amazing way to stay entertained for free. But not everyone has the time to visit one. Hoopla lets you reap all the perks that a library gives without having to go out of your way. All you need is a mobile phone and a library card.

Search for the nearest library in your area.

Hoopla takes away the stress from going to the library. Yes, even handling your late fees.

Upon registration, the app will try to detect your location and you can sift through the libraries or manually look for it yourself. Enter your library card, pin, and other necessary information for a free account.

Read eBooks and comics for free

After signing up, you can now read the fantasy hit, Game of Thrones and the bestselling self-help book, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up. Their comic collection also includes fan favorites from DC and Marvel. Explore different genres because the app offers half a million titles. You won’t have to worry about running out of stuff to read.

Endless choices

Consume other forms of media on this streaming platform. They have audiobooks which can be borrowed for if you don’t have much time to read. This web and mobile library media streaming platform has soundtracks, mixtapes, and the latest music tracks.

Watch TV shows and movies from BBC, Nickelodeon, and other providers. Find the show for you by sorting the collection according to recently added or popularity. You can also arrange them by alphabet when looking for a specific title. The platform supports streaming devices like the Chromecast 1st and 2nd generation.

Nothing lasts forever

Hoopla limits lending durations to 21 days for audiobooks and eBooks. eMusic and eVideos can only be borrowed for 7 days and 72 hours respectively. You can borrow a maximum of 20 items from the platform monthly.

It’s hard to keep track of when you should return a title especially if you live a busy life. Don’t worry about paying late fees anymore. The app will return the items you’ve borrowed for you.

Where can you run this program?

Get this program on your Android and iOS devices. You can also use this on your Kindle if you prefer reading on that device instead.

Is there a better alternative?

Use OverDrive as an alternative if you’re not a fan of this app. The platform, much like Hoopla, returns titles automatically. It also has various accessibility functions such as dyslexic font, customizable font types, adjustable audio speed, and more.

Our take

The web and mobile library gives people free and easier access to public libraries. Libraries play an important role in educating and providing information. 

Should you download it?
