Can I download, listen to or transfer books to my MP-3 player on a public computer at the Library? No, we are sorry but you cannot. You can accomplish these tasks on your own private computer. How many eAudiobooks can I download and how long can I keep them? You may have up to 10 eAudiobooks in your account at any one time. You may keep them for 3 weeks and renew them for another 3 weeks. What happens after 3 weeks? After 3 weeks the file expires & becomes unreadable. It will still be stored on your computer’s hard drive and/or on your MP-3 player’s drive so you will need to delete the file to free-up space. What if I’m not finished listening to a book? You may renew it for another 3 weeks by renewing the license from the NetLibrary web site. If your checkout period has expired, you can checkout the title again without downloading it. Click on the Checkout (No Download) link from the Download page for the title. Open the expired file from your media player. It will automatically connect to NetLibrary, prompt you to log in and re-checkout the title. Please Note!
