eBook & Audio


Residents of Iowa have access to eBooks and audiobooks through a website called Bridges. Your ability to access Bridges is determined by where you live. You must access Bridges through your local library. Norelius Community Library is able to provide access to any patrons who:

  • Live in Denison City Limits
  • Live in Rural Crawford County

If you live within the City Limits of any other Iowa town, you must use your local library to access Bridges. If your town does not have a local library, your township must contract with Norelius Community Library in order for any patrons within your City Limits to gain access. Please contact your local leadership.

The Bridges website can be accessed at https://bridges.overdrive.com/.

Your information is sent to Bridges automatically. Your library card must remain active for continued access. If you have not yet provided us with your email address, you may wish to update your library account information so you can receive emailed reminders of library card expiration. Your card will need to be renewed once yearly.

Bridges can also be accessed through their app called Libby for e-reading on your Apple or Android device.
