Page 4 THE VILLADOM TIMES IV • November 20, 2013 Mahwah Library offers free streaming media service The Mahwah Public Library is the first library in New Jersey to offer “Hoopla,” a streaming media service that allows library members to enjoy popular movies, television programs, music, and more on their computer, tablet, or smartphone. Mahwah Library members can download the free Hoopla digital mobile app on their Android or iOS device or visit hoopladigital.com to begin enjoying thousands of titles available to borrow for instant streaming or tempo- rary downloading to their smartphones, tablets, and com- puters. There are thousands of titles, including selections from major Hollywood studios, record companies, and publishers, and all titles are available all the time – no more waiting for items on hold. “We’ve seen a tremendous demand for technologies that allow library members to borrow movies, music and other items on-the-go through their PC or mobile device,” said Library Director Kurt Hadeler. “We hope our patrons will love the new service and how easy it is to use the hoopla app. There is no waiting period for popular titles and Hoop- la’s automatic return means no late fees. It doesn’t get any easier than that.” Once a title is checked out on one device, it is auto- matically available on all of the member’s devices with the Hoopla digital app and/or via PC Web browsers and begins streaming immediately. Downloaded content can also be viewed offline at a later date. Videos can be borrowed for 72 hours, music for seven days, and audiobooks for 21 days. All content can be viewed or listened to as often as desired during the checkout period and can be returned early.
