Digital Resources - Some may require a Plainville library card.
Online resources focused on children in Middle School and younger click here.

FYI - The LIBBY APP is fantastic for eBooks and eAudio - it has the ereader and eaudio player built right in. 
BUT - if you want to borrow Streamable MOVIES or MAGAZINES the OVERDRIVE APP is the better way to go (and it does books and audio too)
And don't forget to use our PARTNER Libraries in Overdrive to get the resources from all over the state!
