Access eBooks, eAudiobooks and Movies through Cloud Library:

Step 1:  download the app to your device. 

Step 2:  once you’ve installed and opened the app, search for “Navajo County Library District” in the list of libraries.

Step 3:  enter your library card number and accept the terms of use.

Step 4:  browse for a book you want to read and select the “Borrow” button.


Cloud Library is compatible with iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, Android phones, Android devices, Mac OS X, Windows, NOOK eReader, NOOK Tablets, Kobo eReader, Kindle Fire, and Kindle Fire HD.  Only one person at a time can read each eBook, so they'll automatically be checked in after 14 days to let the next person enjoy them.  If a book you want is checked out, you can place a hold on it, just like with a physical library book.  You can sign up to receive an email notification when a book you've placed on hold becomes available.  You also have the option of returning books early if you are finished with them.

Download or open Libby on your device:

Step 2: In Libby, follow the prompts to find your library and sign in with a library card.
