Create professional-quality resumes in three quick and simple steps

From Hollywood blockbusters to niche and hard-to-find movies, you’ll soon discover that Hoopla provides you the freedom you’ve been searching for.  Hoopla is constantly adding new content including of popular TV shows from networks such as Nickelodeon, Nick Jr., Comedy Central, MTV, Spike, VH1, TV Land, and CMT.  Hoopla has also announced the addition of all things Disney.
Kanopy offers instant access to over 30,000 classic feature films, documentaries, and educational programs.

Use your Mahasset Library card to stream or download music for free using Hoopla.
Hoopla makes borrowing music from the library as easy as streaming content on the web. The music is available on demand, meaning you don’t have to wait to listen to the new album from your favorite artist or band.
You don’t have to remember to return the music; after the borrowing period is over, the files expire — poof! — so you never have to worry about overdue fines.
Once you’ve borrowed an album, you can stream it from Hoopla’s website or on your digital device using Hoopla’s iOS or Android apps.

Love magazines?  With your Manhasset Library card you can check out digital magazines from RBDigital and read them on your PC, MAC, iPhone, Android, Kindle Fire or Nook HD.  There are over 100 titles to chose from including New Yorker, US Weekly, Rolling Stone, Vanity, Fair, The Economist and many more.  Once you download your magazine, it’s yours and you can set it up to have each new issue sent to your device automatically.

Choose from thousands of eBooks and Audiobooks, available across all popular devices as well as your web browser.

LIBBY by Overdrive (eBooks & Audiobook –  iOS and Android devices)
HOOPLA (eBooks, comics & Audiobooks)
