Coming Soon----Disney Digital Books Through Media on Demand

For Richton Park Public Library District Library Card Holders

Experience your favorite new and classic Disney adventures on your computer with
approximately 670 Disney Online Books. These colorful, interactive eBooks offer plenty of
opportunities for learning and fun. For example, your mouse becomes a 'magic pen' that
pronounces words with just one click. Plus, enjoy a trivia challenge and a dictionary that
displays definitions without losing your place in the book.

All you need to get started is a valid library card and a Windows or Mac computer.

How to Enjoy

Visit the collection of Disney Online Books.
Browse and check out a title.
Click the 'Launch' button. This opens the Disney Online Book.

Use the magic pen (your mouse) to…

Turn pages. Click near the top of the page and drag, just like turning a page in a real book.
Hear words pronounced. Click on a word to hear it out loud.
Find definitions. Click the dictionary at the top of the page to look up a definition.
