Ebooks & Audiobooks
You can instantly borrow them for free using your desktop or the device in your hand. (tablet, smartphone). The Librarian has access to the CW MARS system remotely, which allows her to look up patron library card numbers and passwords. If you have misplaced your library card or don't know your password, contact them via email, and you can get help with access to Libby. You can also register remotely if you live in Egremont and don't have a library card. Note: if you have a card from Great Barrington, Sheffield, or nearby Berkshire towns, you are all set. But if you don't have any library cards, send the Library an email, and we'll sign you up!
