The Film Library: A Kanopy Podcast
The Film Library Kanopy Podcast logo2024 - 8 episodes - 4 hr, 59 min
Uses 0 tickets: unlimited access

Did you know that Kanopy has a podcast, 'The Film Library', and that it uses NO tickets to watch?

The first episode is very helpful for brand new Kanopy users, labeled (naturally enough) 'Getting Started with Kanopy'. Other episodes take a dive into a movie genre per episode, discussing such categories as 'World Cinema', 'Book-to-Screen', and 'Film Noir', among others. Each episode has a guest expert and a lively, informative discussion takes place. Great for budding cinephiles looking to discover new film experiences.

Kanopy is free with your library card, providing 21 tickets each month to watch streaming movies, documentaries, and TV shows.

Fantasy E-Audiobook

Bloodguard book cover

Bloodguard
by: Cecy Robson

Everything in the Kingdom of Arrow is a lie.

Desperate, Leith of Grey volunteers to fight in the gladiator arena to earn gold to save his dying sister. He thought there was nothing left to lose. But, they took everything from him: his hope, his freedom, his very humanity, in the bloodthirsty tournaments.

Then Leith meets Maeve, an elven royal who is everything he despises and hates. That is until the princess offers him the one thing he needs most: a chance to win the coveted title of Bloodguard and his freedom.

Read Bloodguard as an eaudiobook with no wait time (an ebook version is available, wait time may apply).  Discover all the great books in Overdrive and Libby.
