New Kid’s & Teen website provides a kid-friendly digital library experience

New Kid’s & Teen website provides a kid-friendly digital library experience
Introduce your kids to the Minuteman Library Network's Collection of digital titles

The Minuteman Library Network has expanded its services with a new digital collection website experience just for kids & teens. The main digital collection, digital.minlib.net, now has a separate site to provide a safe and easy browsing experience for kids & teens.

The Minuteman Library Network, and all its member libraries, recognizes the need to provide a safe environment for kids & teens to browse library materials. Just as the children's & teen sections of the physical libraries are sectioned off, the same experience is now available on the digital collection. This appealing and user-friendly page contains eBooks & audiobooks. Browsing can be done by subject, reading level or interest level. Check this page out now, http://minuteman.lib.overdrive.com/KIDS .

The Kid’s & Teen Collection site filters the overall digital collection to just show Children’s and Young Adult content, which gets kids & teens to the titles they want faster! This new service, powered by OverDrive, is free for users with a library card. Digital titles are available anytime, anywhere and expire automatically, so no need to worry about late fees.
