Movies and TV series
The Library offers three (3) services that provide access to movies and TV series. Access Video on Demand, hoopla and kanopy each offer something different. See the links and descriptions below.
Hook your device up to a TV and stream on the big screen. Download a movie and watch it in-flight even in airplane mode.

Volusia Reads Online Book Club
Volusia County Public Library has partnered with PBC Guru and Freading to create a virtual book club for patrons and the community.
The book for March - May is When The Moon Is Low by Nadia Hashmimi.
Mahmoud's passion for his wife Fereiba, a schoolteacher, is greater than any love she's ever known. But their happy, middle-class world--a life of education, work, and comfort--implodes when their country is engulfed in war, and the Taliban rises to power.
It is always available for download from Freading.
