Check out a Roku at your library! The library has seven Roku streaming devices available for checkout, all subscribed to a different service: Apple TV, Curiosity Stream, HBO Max, Hulu/Disney+, Netflix, Paramount+, and Peacock. You can check availablility through the online catalog and place a hold. Rokus check out for 7 days and are not renewable. You must be 18 years or older and have a Hudson library card to check out a Roku.

You may now explore the holdings in the Hudson History Room online. Much of our collection has been cataloged on the CatalogIt Hub with more being added and expanded all the time. We are still in the process of organizing, but there is much to see.

Hudson Area Public Library patrons can borrow mobile hot spots to take the internet wherever they go.

A hot spot is a portable device that provides Wi-Fi internet access to computers, phones, or tablets. Library hot spots come with unlimited data and can connect up to 10 devices at a time. So, if you want a reliable internet connection for your devices on vacation or don’t have internet at home and have a project to work on, hot spots are a great option. Our hot spots work anywhere in the U.S. where there is T-mobile coverage.
