eBooks? At my Library?
The North Hampton Public Library has 3 eReaders that patrons over 21 can check out. We have a Kindle Keyboard, Color Nook and a Kobo to check out. We have some books already downloaded to the devices-no work on your part! You can also use NHPL’s Overdrive as a patron of the North Hampton Public Library and download your own – for FREE! The NHPL also has copies of books just for NHPL patrons! Sign in here to view titles the NHPL has purchased from Overdrive just for you. This is a supplemental program we pay for to go along with the State consortium’s inventory called Overdrive Advantage. You’ll notice this symbol 
next to the titles. That tells you that the NHPL has purchased an additional copy. This extra copy is JUST for NHPL patrons to help lighten the load on the popular books with long hold lines.
