Downloadable Media

ebookREAD
Overdrive

Download a wide variety of popular fiction and nonfiction ebooks to your computer, eReaders, or mobile device with Overdrive Digital Library. Now available for Kindle!

Due to a substantial increase in demand, the eBook checkout limit is now 3, instead of 5. However, eBooks can now be returned at anytime after they have been downloaded, so if you finish a eBook, or decide you are no longer interested in reading it, you may return it before the loan period ends and select a new title. (Here's how)

See our eBook Help Page for more information about this service.

OneClick

Take a look at our NEW Downloadable Audiobook Service, Hamden OneClickDigital. We've added over 2000 titles to our collection that you can listen to on your computer or digital audio player. You must be a Hamden resident to sign up for an account. The Connecticut State Library also offers ICONN OneClickDigital for additional titles to chose from. This service is available to all Connecticut residents with a valid library card. ICONN audiobooks are now available directly from Hamden' OneClickDigital collection, so Hamden residents can download titles from both collections with a single login.

And good news for Mac users - The OneClickDigital Media Manager is now available for Macs running OS 10.6 or higher!

Our OneClickDigital Getting Started page will show you how to set up a new account.
