Local History

The Tompkins County Public Library has eBook readers (or eReaders) available for you to check out and take home for one week.  Stop by the Circulation desk to check out:

• Kindle - This collection was donated in memory of Toni McNamara and made possible by J.M. McDonald Foundation
• Nook Classic
• Nook Color - This Nook Color was purchased for the Finger Lakes Library System through a grant from Senator David Valesky.

These eReaders have a preloaded collection on them and are available so our library patrons can become familiar with eReader technology.  You can download OverDrive titles on TCPL's Nook eReaders, but not on TCPL's Kindle eReaders because we had to limit their functionality for security reasons.  However, you can download OverDrive titles on your own Nook eReader or your own Kindle.

Each device is preloaded with the following titles:
