Getting Started

The first time you use Hoopla Digital you will create an account, entering your email address, a new password, and your library card number.  After that first time you will log into Hoopla with just your email address and password. 

All items are available at any time - there are no waiting lists! Library cardholders will be allowed to borrow up to 12 items every month.  It doesn't matter how many of each type of item you have. You can check out any combination of movies, eBooks, audiobooks, comics, and music, but when you have checked out 12 items you are done for the month.  You will get 12 more checkouts on the first of each month. You can borrow titles though the hoopla digital mobile app or website by browsing all available content. Once you select a title you can click on the Borrow button on the title details page. Once a title is borrowed, it will be added to your My Titles menu. From there, you can play or view the title on your mobile device or PC/Mac. 

Ebooks, comics, and audiobooks may be checked out for 21 days.  Music albums are available for 7 days.  Movies and television shows may be checked out for 3 days.  The titles will automatically expire - you do not need to return them.
