Borrow movies, music, audiobooks, ebooks, comics and TV shows for free with your SFL card!
What is Hoopla?
Hoopla is a digital media service that allows you to borrow movies, music, audiobooks, ebooks, comics and TV shows to enjoy on your computer, tablet, or phone – and even your TV! With no waiting, titles can be streamed immediately, or downloaded to phones or tablets for offline enjoyment later.
You can stream titles instantly through your desktop browser or mobile app. If you use the mobile app, you can also download titles to your device for offline playback later, where Wi-Fi may be unavailable. Titles are automatically returned and removed from your device at the end of the lending period.
You can view what’s available and borrow titles by visiting the Hoopla website on your PC, or by downloading the Hoopla app to your Android mobile device, iOS mobile device, or Amazon Fire Tablet. Hoopla can also be streamed through your Roku, Apple TV, Fire TV or Chromecast.
