Lesson 9 Part 1 Hoopla



Found in Hoopla's App under Top Titles for Audiobook:

Orange is the New Black by Piper Kerman
Daring Greatly by Brene Brown
Mary Poppins by P.L. Travers

I don't know how digital resources are changing libraries except that because people are using them more, their expectations are that we have them. I know that in the last 5 years, I've seen eBook use really take off, both in the library and "on the outside." As far as other resources such as Zinnio and Hoopla, I don't know of many people who use these. I have an account with both but don't use them. Probably because I'm in front of computers all day and I try and detox at home. I really should make a point of looking at my Zinnio magazines though because they are awesome on a large computer screen!

Lesson 8 Part 2 Challenge

OneClickDigital - Outlander by Diana Gabaldon
Hoopla - Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson
OverDrive - Coraline by Neil Gaiman

I found OneClickDigital the easiest to use. Hoopla is a tad clunky. OverDrive was fine.
