Say Hello to Hoopla

Say hello to hoopla. This streaming service allows you to borrow and enjoy audiobooks, ebooks, comics, movies, television shows, magazines, and music.

Hoopla offers more content, in more places, than any other digital library platform and it’s all FREE! Best of all, titles are available instantly! No holds. No waiting. All you need is an email address and your Dubuque resident library card to create your account.

Use hoopla anywhere you have a screen—your computer, your phone, your TV, and even your car. It syncs across all your devices, so you can stream titles immediately or whenever you’re in the mood. You can also download most titles to your phone or tablet so you can read, listen, or watch without internet access.

You are given eight borrows a month through hoopla. These borrows renew at the beginning of each month. Each title (ebook, audiobook, movie, television show, music) counts as one borrow. But titles in the “Bonus Borrows” collection do not count against your monthly borrow limit. Bonus Borrows return in August!

You’ll also find “BingePasses” on hoopla. BingePasses give you unlimited access to collections of streaming content for 7 days with just a single borrow! BingePasses includes content like “The Great Courses” and magazines.
