Free downloadable eBooks are available from the library's digital website at eHCL. To use the service, browse the eHCL website first. Select & borrow an eBook, then download it to your PC, Mac, mobile device or ereader. If unable to locate a title on eHCL, then go to Digital Library NJ and search there. eBooks automatically expire at the end of their lending period. There are no late fees. A valid Hunterdon County Library card is required to check out eBooks from our website.
