Digital Magazines To Go!

By Jamie W. RSS Tue, July 15, 2014

Magazines. They're papery, crinkly, and sometimes they smell like purfume. Who needs 'em, right? 

Just kidding. We love magazines! Love them so much we sometimes like to get a bit highfalutin' and call them periodicals. In fact, the only thing better than magazines is more magazines! Thankfully, that's just what we have with Zinio. 

Zinio is your online source for digital magazines you can read on your phone, tablet, laptop, or home computer and that the Free Library provides it to you at no cost. All you need is your Free Library card and PIN. So checkout our FAQs to learn all the ins and outs of Zinio, like how to get started and how to set up your account.

Still not convinced that magazines are the best thing since the broadside? Take a look at this video and just try to not get a little bit excited about Zinio!

Can I register for a library card online? Or do I have to visit a "bricks & mortar" library?

Hello Nancy - you can request a library card online. Once you do so we will process your request and mail you a card. However, if you live in Philadelphia and you are able to do so, it would be faster to get one at one of our libraries. Here is the link to get a card online: http://libwww.freelibrary.org/register/getcard1.cfm
