Using your High Point Public Library card, you can now access the Kanopy streaming service. With an expertly curated collection of narrative and documentary films we think you’ll enjoy, we’re pleased to bring this streaming service to our community.  Go to Kanopy (or the Libby app, under Extras) to get started today. You can even get prepared for the Oscars with their selection of Academy Award Nominees and Winners!

If you use the OverDrive app and want to switch to Libby, we are here to help! Reach out to Julie at julie.raynor@highpointnc.gov and she'll arrange a one-on-one help session at your convenience (in person or over the phone). The OverDrive app will be phased out on May 1st, 2023, so don't wait! We think you'll love the features in Libby. To try it out, go to: https://www.overdrive.com/apps/libby/. If you'd like a one-on-one help session learning about Libby, contact Julie at the email below.
