Reading on a Computer

Many sites have a pretty good reader on a computer! Here are some great options--click on the link and it will take you to the instructions page:

• Sora (all you need is your DOE login!)

• The Public Libraries 

• Kindle (not my favorite, but not bad)

Getting a Public Library Card with a Computer

If you're 13 years old or older, you can sign up for a digital library card here at the New York Public Library link!

Brooklyn Public Library is offering an online library card you can access with a computer.

Queens Public Library is also offering an online library card you can access with a computer.

If you're 12 years old or younger, you can't apply for a new NYPL library card using just a computer.  You will need to borrow a phone or tablet to get a library card number.  You can copy down your library card number and use it on a computer. You can also contact Andrea to help you get a card. The instructions for signing up for a library card using SimplyE are on this page!
