Hoopla is here!

Have you heard the news? We just got Hoopla!

If you are a Framingham resident, here is what you can download with Hoopla:
  • Movies
  • TV
  • Music
  • Audiobooks
And... there is no waiting period! Everything you see can be downloaded instantly- there are never any holds. And, there are never any annoying Ads!

To start, visit www.hoopladigital.com and sign-up with your library card number.

How it Works

To use Hoopla, you must be a Framingham resident.

You are allowed 5 check-outs per calendar month. Each movie, audiobook, TV episode, and music album counts as 1 check-out. (Yes that's right, you get the entire music album.) Demo Content does not count towards your check-out limit, so feel free to download these materials as much as you like.

Here is how long you can keep your borrows:
  • Movies + TV episodes: 3 days
  • Music albums: 7 days
  • Audiobooks: 21 days


Mobile App

You can stream the materials on your computer, but there is also a Hoopla App so you can take your check-outs on the go. Download the Hoopla App from your mobile device's App or Play Store.
