The Winter Park Library offers Adult readers a variety of formats, along with DVDs and audiobooks. Members unable to visit in person may access materials via Hoopla and Libby to stream movies, music and downloadable eBooks. For the business-minded, the Library subscribes to local and national newspapers like the Orlando Sentinel, the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal. Magazine afficionados will appreciate online access to Consumer Reports, Morningstar, and ValueLine. Historians and genealogists will enjoy Ancestry Library and Heritage Quest, and our state-of-the-art technology offers members the latest equipment and software while inviting creatives to journey into the world of virtual reality, 3D printing, and recording.
