E-books, Food Trucks, and the Night Market

By Joel N. RSS Thu, May 31, 2012

Last week, the Techmobile traveled to North Second Street to participate in the Food Trust's Night Market, a "roving street fair celebrating the city's ethnic restaurants, gourmet food trucks and coolest neighborhoods from the people who brought you Headhouse Farmer's Market." 

Thank you to Oron at North Bowl, who graciously let us park in his lot. We spent many hours talking to people and inviting them on board for tours of the Techmobile. In addition, we demonstrated how to check out Library e-books on your Kindle, iPad or other reader, and registered many new friends for library cards.

Between the dynamic and happy crowd, fantastic live music playing in the open storefront across the street,  the delicious smells wafting about from Philly's finest food trucks, and seeing many old and new faces, the Techmobile team felt right at home. We can't wait for next month! Thanks again to the Food Trust for having us.

Does Amazon allowed downloads of e-books from local libraries to their Kindle? I was told by library staff that Amazon blocks library books from being downloaded to their product.

Although Amazon does have many restrictions for Libraries, we are still able to offer some books in Kindle format as Library downloads. Go here: http://search.freelibrary.org/digitalmedia.cfm and find out more.
