The New Jersey State Library is pleased to announce the statewide roll out of The Palace Project, a new digital library service, that offers access to free e-books and e-audiobooks in one easy-to-use app. Through the Palace app, library users have access to over 20,000 items curated by the Digital Public Library of America and the New Jersey State Library. Also, the content accessible to Denville Library card holders from Libby is also available through the Palace Project app. Users can login to the Palace app on their preferred mobile device or tablet via download from the Apple or Google Play stores.
The process for signing up is completely self-contained within the Palace app, and will require only an email address and authentication through geolocation (anywhere in NJ). We’ve outlined instructions below. For more detailed instructions from Palace, click here. If you’d prefer to watch a training video, click here.
