Rock Island Public Library Offers Course On Streaming Movies, Music And More Available
September is Library Card Sign Up Month, when libraries everywhere remind residents about the awesome benefits of a simple plastic library card. Rock Island Public Library offers insider tips on using that card through free “library university” online courses.
The four Library University sessions are offered at 2:00 pm on Tuesdays in September via the Zoom meeting platform. Each week offers a 
new look at amazing things RIPL cardholders can access with their free library card. Topics include:
- September 28: Streaming movies, music, and more. Maybe you already knew that libraries offer DVDs, but did you know that can also save money on streaming fees with your library card? Attendees will learn how to stream thousands of movies and songs at no added cost to them with the library’s Hoopla, Kanopy, and Freegal apps.

Courses are designed for adult attendees with general knowledge on using computers and smart devices. Access to Rock Island Public Library subscription services is available only to holders of a Rock Island Public Library card. Digital collections cannot be shared with cardholders of other libraries. RIPL cards are available at no additional cost to residents of Rock Island and the Milan-Blackhawk Area Public Library District.
