Accessing E-books & Audio Books

Prairie Skies Public Library District offers two Digital Library collections.

• Libby (formerly known as Overdrive*) 

• Axis360 (also known as eRead Illinois)

You can use either or both to download E-books and audio-books to your smart device. Before you begin, please visit the App Store for your device to download the free Libby and Axis 360 apps. To register on the app you'll need your library card number (located underneath the bar code on your card) and your 4-digit PIN. Need help? Call us for assistance: 217-626-1553 (Plains) or 217-476-3417 (Ashland).

*Please note: Users of the Overdrive app are encouraged to download and use Libby instead. The Overdrive app is being phased out beginning on 2/28/22.
