The Macquarie Regional Library’s eresources can be accessed at anytime from a mobile, tablet or computer.

Through the library, readers can borrow ebooks, audiobooks and emagazines.

The online resources are proving so popular, there are waitlists for more than nine months to access some of the audiobooks. If you want to listen to Jodi Picoult’s A Spark of Light, you’ll have to wait until July, 2019.

Liane Moriarty’s Nine Perfect Strangers and Kate Morton’s The Clockmaker’s Daughter have even longer waitlists. They won’t be available for download until August.

Macquarie Regional Library acting libraries coordinator Anne Barwick said she was not surprised at the popularity of the eresources.

Ms Barwick said if the eresources were considered their own branch they would be as popular as some of the region’s smaller libraries.

She said often the ebooks were checked out within moments of being added to the system.

Even the visitors to the library weren’t only calling in to access books anymore, Ms Barwick said, but often to use the internet or the computers.

The branches of the Macquarie Regional Library will be closed on public holidays.
