Books and eBooks
Search and borrow books (and much more)
Discover and engage with all of Petoskey District Library's (PDL) collection along with our neighboring consortium's collections using the online library catalog, Bibliocommons. Here you can renew your Library items, read reviews, see new titles, awards, and staff picks. All with your Library card!
If you can't find what you are looking for on Bibliocommons, try Michigan eLibrary (MeL), an online catalog that allows you to borrow books and other library materials from participating Michigan libraries.
Your Petoskey District Library (PDL) and several northern Michigan libraries are bringing the joy of browsing the shelves to your mobile device.
