hoopla E-audios
Thanks to the support of the Mississippi Library Commission, the current hoopla offerings for JHLS were expanded in March 2020 to include more than 82,000 e-audios. This is in addition to the 319,000+ e-books that have been available since September 2019.
hoopla has a very nice selection of e-audios, so download your favorite titles to listen to when commuting, exercising, etc.
