Digital downloaders and streamers rejoice! Clark County Public Library Director Julie Maruskin and reference librarian/webmaster/digital Scotty (the Enterprise engineer, not the pup) Jeff Gurnee, have teamed up to make your viewing lives four times more pleasurable by providing four new film groups free for library patrons.

Library patrons will now be able to access complete digital catalogs from:

— Acorn TV: All the film and TV series from the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand

— Indie Flix: A colossal collection of independently-produced films

— Pongalo: Spanish language TV and film productions

—  Stingray Quello: The world’s largest single collection of filmed music concerts

Pretty swell, huh? So, how do you get in?

Go to www.clarkbooks.org. Click on the download tab. At the bottom of the downloads menu, you’ll see a link for “OneClickDigital Audio,” click it. That will take you to a website called “rb digital.” When you scroll down the page you will see thumbnails of available media.

Once you quit drooling, go back to the top of the page and click on the registration tab. You must register to be able to use the downloads. It’s the usual registration form. You’ll enter a user name, your name, a password, your Clark County Public Library card number (cards must be current, registration not expired and valid with fines less than $5), your email address and zip code.

Voila! Once registered, you can access all programs from your computer or download an app to make OneClickDigital available on your mobile devices.

The streaming quality is excellent, but will depend on the hardware and software capabilities of the computer or mobile devise you are using.

If you have questions about OneClickDigital, call the library, connect to extension 111 and ask for Jeff.
