Zinio Is Here! What is it?

Zinio
 
You may have noticed this logo on our homepage and wondered "what is Zinio?" Zinio is a platform that allows patrons to read magazines on an I-pad, Kindle Fire, smart phone or other mobile devices. Unlike the e-books, which have a limited number of copies available at any one time, the magazines in our collection have an unlimited amount of copies, so we can accommodate every patron who wants a particular title. You will be seeing exactly the same content that you would with a hard copy of the magazine, and there are bonus features like the ability to do keyword searches, links, videos and more.
 
When you open the link you will see a sign in page as well as links to a user guide and an instructional video. Both will show you, step by step how to set up your library account and how to load the Zinio application on your device. If there is no app for your specific device, you can view your magazine in an Internet browser.

So take a look, sign in and browse through the 55 titles we currently subscribe to. We are always open to adding more titles, and of course, we are always here to help you in person if you have trouble.
