Library Blog

The library has three big choices for downloadable books and audiobooks, ranging from the tried-and-true MontanaLibrary2Go to always-available Hoopla to the popular collection available through Axis 360. 

Knowing that library services may not return to normal as soon as any of us would like, the library has added many new titles to Axis 360 – about 175 this month. These new audiobooks and ebooks were selected based on what library patrons are currently looking for on other online services or in print form with the hope of getting longed-for materials into hands (or e-readers) as quickly as possible. 

Have you been waiting to listen to Where the Crawdad Sings (Owens)? Wanting to read Little Fires Everywhere (Ng)? Do your kids and teens miss reading books from the Ranger’s Apprentice (Flanagan) or Alex Rider (Horowitz) series? 

The holds’ queues just might be shorter at Axis 360.

Have recommendations for titles? Search Axis 360 to see if it’s available (you never know!) and if you can’t find it, choose the Show Titles to Recommend button. The library can’t add everything, but we try to be responsive to requests from our patrons.
