Axis 360 is our eBook and eAudiobook platform dedicated to San Mateo County Libraries patrons. If you’ve ever been on a long hold list for that national bestseller on Libby, check to see if that same book is available on our Axis 360 platform. Because Axis 360 is available locally to San Mateo County Libraries patrons only, you will not be competing with city library holds. The resource allows you to read eBooks or listen to Audiobooks through your web browser or your mobile device (iOS, Android, Kindle Fire). If you’re feeling unsure about how to use the online resource, check out our Niche Academy Tutorial on Axis 360. With it, you can take your library with you wherever you go!
