[Ipg-smz] So apparently Broward County libraries in FL are cool with just anybody logging on to their site and getting a library card?

[Tara Calishain]

Once an application is made, the library quickly sends an email with a
library card number and pin, which allows users to connect to a variety of
online services paid for by the county. Mobile users can also download free
apps for the different services to make it easier to access those
collections.

Some of the online resources are:

   - OverDrive, which provides eBooks, eAudiobooks and videos, and includes
   New York Times best sellers.
   - Freegal, a music service that allows cardholders to download up to six
   free songs a week — and keep them forever. Unlimited streaming of music
   also is possible.
   - Hoopla, which has movies, music, eAudiobooks, eBooks, comics and TV
   shows that can be streamed or downloaded.
   - Axix 360, which has eBooks for children and young adults.
   - RBdigitial Magazines, which includes hundreds of popular publications.
   - Rosetta Stone, which can be used to learn foreign languages.
