Newton Public Library is part of Sunflower eLibrary, a consortium of Kansas libraries that share a large collection of digital materials. E-audiobooks and e-books are available once you log in using your Newton Public Library card number and PIN. For most tablet and smartphone users, the easiest way to browse the eLibrary is the Libby app, available free in the Google, iOS and Kindle Fire app stores.

The Sunflower eLibrary is compatible with Kindle e-ink readers. It also works with other e-reader brands. Click here and select your device in the left column for instructions.
