E-books & Audiobooks

Accessing the DPISD digital library is a breeze! Here are 3 easy ways to find and read great books straight from your device:

Using your iPad?

Use the Overdrive or Sora app! These apps are made by the same company, so the books that are available will be the same, but the reading experience will be different. Both apps can be found in Classlink. All you need to log in is your Classlink log-in information!
