eBiblio: Your Digital Reading App

E-books are here to stay, because they provide readers with a convenient and accessible reading experience. In this article, we will explore what eBiblio is, how it works, what you can find there and the requirements to enjoy its services.

What is eBiblio?

eBiblio is an e-book lending service offered by the Spanish Ministry of Culture and Sport in collaboration with the autonomous communities and Spanish public libraries.

eBiblio offers free access to a wide range of literary works, from classical literature to contemporary works, as well as children's and young people's literature and non-fiction books. eBiblio aims to promote digital reading and facilitate access to culture and knowledge.

How does it work?

The way eBiblio works is simple. First, you must register on the platform through the website or the mobile app with your public library account credentials.

Once registered, you can browse the extensive catalogue of e-books available, where you can even find audiobooks. This catalogue covers a range of genres, from classic novels to contemporary works, essays, children's books, and much more.

Once you find a book you are interested in, you can borrow it digitally. Depending on the library's policies, you will be assigned a period of time during which you will have access to the book.

Once the loan period is over, the book is automatically returned, with no worries about late returns or fines.

What can we find in eBiblio?

eBiblio hosts a wide selection of e-books to suit all tastes and interests. From classics of world literature to the latest new releases, the platform offers a diverse and enriching reading experience.

Users can explore categories such as fiction, non-fiction, children's and young adult literature, science fiction, mystery, self-help, among others.

In addition to books, eBiblio can also offer access to audiobooks and digital magazines, further expanding the reading options for its users. This variety ensures that there is something for every type of reader, from the most eager to those looking to discover new genres and authors.

Requirements for accessing eBiblio

To enjoy eBiblio's services, all you need to do is meet a few basic requirements.

First, you must be a resident of Spain and have a public library user card. You will also need an internet connection and a compatible device, such as a computer, tablet or mobile phone.

If you do not have a card, you can request it by going to the Ministry of Culture website, where you will need to access the eBiblio of your autonomous community and there you will find the steps for requesting it, either online or in person.

And that's how easy it is to use eBiblio on the inkBOOK Calypso Plus and inkBOOK Focus devices.
