Download Audiobooks Anytime, Anywhere

Enjoy popular titles from the comfort of home

The Welland Public Library is proud to offer you popular audiobooks, accessible 24/7. We are excited to announce this at-home or on-the-go service for a new way to enjoy your library. This collection is brought to you by the Ontario Ministry of Culture, through Southern Ontario Library Service (SOLS) and Ontario Library Service-North (OLS-North).

With hundreds of popular and classic titles to select from, our digital collection is guaranteed to have something for everyone. Offering popular fiction and non-fiction, our “Virtual Branch” has over 2600 titles, covering a wide range of genres and including juvenile and young adult titles.

Getting started is easy! Visit downloadcentre.library.on.ca.

Install the free software, browse the collection, and add titles to your cart.

To download titles to a personal computer or laptop, you will need your 14-digit library card number and your PIN number. Don't know your PIN number? Library staff can look it up for you.

When the download process is complete, you can enjoy titles on your Windows or Mac computer or transfer to supported devices, like an MP3 player. Many audio titles can be burned to CD to listen in the car. OverDrive is also accessible to visually impaired patrons, and is compatible with screen reader programs, such as JAWS for Windows and Window-Eyes.

So what’s the catch? There is none. Digital downloads are easy to check out and download, and the best part is- there are never any late fees because your titles are automatically returned at the end of the lending period.
