Chromebooks check out for one week at a time.

You can now check out a Roku device that you can use to watch free movies and get TV over the internet at the Aston Public Library! Best of all, it’s free! A Roku is a “set top box” that connects to your television and to your wi-fi. It provides access to several online services providing educational and entertaining content.

Using one of the Library’s Rokus also gives you free access to the Library’s collection of digital movies, including The Age of Adaline, Disney’s Aladdin, Aloha, The Book of Life, Child 44, Danny Collins, Dark Shadows, The Divergent Series: Insurgent, The Duff, Ex Machina, Fifty Shades of Grey, Focus, The Longest Ride, Love and Mercy, Minions, Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation, Nightcrawler, Non-Stop, Paddington, Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2, Pitch Perfect 2, Run All Night, Disney’s Sleeping Beauty, Still Alice, Terminator: Genisys, The Theory of Everything, Trainwreck, and War Room.

You can pre-reserve your Roku at http://tinyurl.com/APLRoku15 , or ask at the service desk if one is available.
