Kansas State Library Resources

The State Library of Kansas works with Kansas libraries to provide digital library books for all residents, which includes downloadable audiobooks and ebooks. The library also offers numerous databases and online resources for residents of Kansas, all available for free, from the Kansas State Library.

Many of the resources work by verifying your Kansas internet provider address and do not require a login. However, many of the eBook options will require a log in with your Kansas Library Card.

Need a Kansas Library Card? Just visit your local library and register. McLouth USD #342 students and families can request a Kansas Library Card by filling out this link.

In addition to the previous eBook collection that included the TumbleBooks and the 3M Cloud, the state has added new services with BookFlix and the Britannica E-STAX.
