Emagazines Available Free Of Charge In Derbyshire Libraries
Residents can now read free digital copies of their favourite magazines on their computer, smartphone or tablet following the launch of a new service by Derbyshire County Council.
Over 90 eMagazines are now available free of charge through the county council’s library service. Popular titles like BBC Good Food, New Scientist, Marie Claire, Best, Hello, BBC Top Gear and Men’s Health are amongst the eMagazines on offer along with specialist magazines on subjects including photography, arts and crafts and cycling.
The eMagazines can be read in the library on a computer, or on a home laptop/PC, smart phone or tablet. Borrowers need to be members of the library service - which is free to join – and then they can create an eMagazines account.
They download the titles that they want to read and there is no limit to the number of titles selected.
There are no loan periods or returns so once the magazine is downloaded it can be kept for as long as the borrower wants and then deleted.
There is also the option to be emailed when the next issue of the magazine is available. All of this can be done from home but anyone needing help to sign up can get help in their local library.
Councillor Ellie Wilcox, Derbyshire County Council’s Deputy Cabinet Member for Health and Communities said: “This is an excellent new venture by our libraries and already proving very popular.
“I’m impressed by the range of magazines on offer and as they are free to download people can save quite a lot of money.
“I’m sure that most people will find something that they like and they can download it in the comfort of their own home or while on the move onto their phone or tablet. It is perfect for a bus or rail journey.”
Residents can find out more about the eMagazine service at their local library or sign up at www.derbyshire.gov.uk/emagazines
