December’s Electronic Resource of the Month…

Freegal is the December Electronic Resource of the month.  

What is freegal? Freegal is a download music service with access to millions of songs in hundreds of muisc genres.  The library’s subscription allows you (the patron with a library card) to download 5 songs a week that are free & free of drm.  Additionally you can stream music 24/7 via this service.

How do you access freegal?  You will find freegal listed on the library’s website (http://www.lapl.org/) in the Research & Homework alphabetical online resources list (http://www.lapl.org/collections-resources/research-and-homework#F).  You will need your library card to access the service.

Once you’re logged in you will find the site fairly intuitive to use with plenty of FAQs (found on the right hand corner of every page) offering specific help.  Give it a try if you aren’t already a user.
