The HIDOE Digital Library is a free reading service for students at Mililani Mauka Elementary that provides digital books that can be accessed 24/7 at http://hidoe.lib.overdrive.com.
Why a Digital Library?
The HIDOE Digital Library is using the OverDrive platform, similar to the one used at the Hawaii State Public Library. The collection is an extension of our physical library, only it’s online with 24/7 access to eBooks and audiobooks. It’s convenient for students to check out titles anytime, anywhere with no worry about misplacing a book or running up late fees – these digital titles automatically return at the end of the lending period!
The HIDOE Digital Library on Overdrive can help students of all ages read more and improve comprehension. Struggling or reluctant readers, learning-challenged, second language learners, and gifted readers can all benefit from this service.
