What can you do with a Library Card?
You know us for our books, movies, and events, but did you know you also have access to research materials, digital collections, and training in all kinds of skills? And, like all our collections, access is completely FREE?

Grab your library card and check out the featured resources below!

We spend a lot of time shopping in December, and it can be hard to know what products are the best fit for our needs (and budget!). That's why we offer access to Consumer Reports free with your library card! You can read full issues (1985 to today) or search for specific articles or products. Just follow the steps below:
Under the Research drop down on our website, click Consumer Reports. Make sure you have your library card handy.
To browse by issue, select the issue date from the list on the right hand side of the screen. To search for a specific article or topic, click "search within this publication."
Once you find an article you'd like to read, you can read just the text by clicking the HTML Full Text button, or select PDF Full Text to view accompanying images. If selecting PDF, check your downloads folder if the page doesn't open automatically.
