Library Adds Free Online Magazines

Written by 107.5 Kiss FM Monday, 20 August 2012 06:00  
Okanagan Regional Library customers can now access some of their favorite magazines, online, for free. The library has subscribed to a service called "Zinio," which provides the digital editions of Consumer Reports, Elle, Good Housekeeping, Rolling Stone and Newsweek, to name a few. Customers just need to hit the "Reference and Research" button on the ORL homepage and scroll down to the Zinio Link, sign-in and create an account. Digital collections continue to grow in popularity with ORL customers. The recently released 2011 ORL annual report showed a 151% increase in downloads of eBooks and eAudiobooks over the previous year, and thousands of songs have been downloaded from the ORL's freegal service. All can be accessed from the ORL website at www.orl.bc.ca.
