This week’s highlight is one of the few collections anyone in Oklahoma County can access without a library card. Biblioboard’s Dark Horse collection [1] features classic Dark Horse comics like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Hellboy, and Usagi Yojimbo. The collection can be access through the web or by downloading the Biblioboard app for iOS, Android, and KindleFire. As long as a user has access to wifi (at least until a title is downloaded), location services turned on, and is in the Oklahoma County boundaries, they can read without a library card. That makes this a great outreach collection! Those who want even more ebooks can easily apply for a library card online [2].
Speaking of comics, Free Come Book Day [3] is this Saturday! Customers heading to Northwest or the Community Libraries will enjoy free comic book celebrations. Anyone who can’t make it out to those locations can search here [4] to find a participating comic book store in their area. Here's the list [5] of this year’s free comics.
