In this story

Choose something for the evening

An audiobook for the kitchen, a magazine for the porch or a Virginia author you have never read: Pittsylvania County Public Library offers several ways to borrow without making another trip. Its digital-resources page links to Hoopla, Magzter and BiblioBoard, with different borrowing rules for each.

PCPL lists five Hoopla checkouts per library card each month, with no holds. BiblioBoard offers books by Virginia and independent authors without a checkout limit.

Magzter provides a separate digital-magazine collection through the Library of Virginia.

Get through the right door

For Magzter, follow the library link, choose library-card access, enter your email and its one-time code, select Pittsylvania County Public Library, then supply your card number. A paid consumer subscription is a different route; start at PCPL so you reach its library access.

County residents and residents of adjoining Virginia and North Carolina localities can obtain a free PCPL card with photo identification and proof of current address. Ask the library about your account if a service does not recognize it.

Make a small reading ritual

Our suggestion: choose one thing you actually want to finish this week. Keep the title in your planner, try a chapter or an article, and let that guide the next choice.

A useful home library can begin with twenty quiet minutes.
