How to Find & Request a Book

With permission from the librarians at Maine Maritime Academy’s Nutting Memorial Library, here’s a video explaining how to search the library catalog for a book and request it. Though the library is different, we use the same catalog so the same steps will work.

Spotlighted Databases

 

 

 

Comics Plus offers thousands of digital comics,  graphic novels and manga for all ages. You can  access titles using a smartphone, tablet, or  computer, and comics can be downloaded to multiple devices. There is never a wait to read!  All items are available at all times to everyone.  

Get started by downloading the LibraryPass app through your device’s app store, or access through the web at https://login.librarypass.com/

CloudLibrary is a collection of ebooks and audiobooks available for checkout to MML cardholders. Books may be downloaded to most phones and tablets.

See cloudLibrary’s support page for answers to common problems and how-to videos. Installing cloudLibrary on a Kindle Fire requires you to jump through some hoops.

 

The Digital Maine Library provides every resident of Maine with access to online resources that include a collection of full text articles and abstracts from magazines, newspapers, journals and reference. It also provides students, business people, public library patrons, and higher education students and educators the ability to use online learning tools.

 

Flipster is a digital magazine service. Merrill Memorial Library now subscribes to a number of digital magazines in addition to our regular print magazines. Some of the digital titles we will carry are familiar, like the New Yorker, Sports Illustrated, Real Simple, and Vogue; other titles are new but cover subject matter similar to what you’ll find in our print collection, like Dwell, Food Network Magazine, Mother Jones, Newsweek, and Prevention.

You can read these magazines on your computer or smartphone, but the experience of reading on an iPad, Kindle Fire, or Android tablet is best.

  1. Go to the iOS App Store, Google Play Store, or Amazon App Store to download the app to your device.
  2. Download and open the app.
  3. When prompted, search for MERRILL MEM LIBRARY.
  4. Enter your library card number.

Answers to frequently asked questions available in this PDF.

MML also has a digital subscription to Consumer Reports. This subscriptions is not accessible through Flipster. Call 846-4763 or write to us at mmlinfo@yarmouthlibrary.org for access information.

 

Kanopy is a video streaming service for public libraries and universities.
