Tips for Using the Washington Anytime Library Website

Navigating the site:

  • Browse the rows of "Just Added" and "Recently Returned" eBooks and Audiobooks on the Home page. Rows scroll sideways, or click the "complete list" links.
  • Use the Quick Search. There is a check box option to show available copies only, as well as an advanced search with many more options.
  • Scroll down to use the browsing navigation (lower left green box.) Clicking on any of the browsing navigation items will slide open a menu that gives you smaller categories and genres.
  • Help for New Users - the "Getting Started" and "My Help!" options are both especially useful for becoming aquainted with the site and the process of checking out downloadable media.
