Elmwood Public Library is proud to offer My Library DV!

My Library DV (digital video) is a revolutionary video on-demand service that library card holders can use to watch videos, television shows and movies on their home PC.

All you need is a library card and a PIN (the same used to request books via SWAN) and you will have access to thousands of popular titles, both movies and television.

...created by Recorded Books in partnership with public libraries across the country. MyLibraryDV is the first service allowing public libraries to offer card holders free Hollywood movies, network and cable TV programming and original digital video content downloadable direct to personal computers. MyLibraryDV creates a “virtual video” library branch available 24/7, that also allows libraries to upload original content for patrons’ viewing.
   You will find hundreds of hours of lifestyle programming videos,
including Rick Steves’ Europe, Antiques Roadshow, America’s Test Kitchen, Today’s Homeowner, independent films from Film Movement and an array of classics.
