Bring your device, learn about various apps you might enjoy, and get hands-on help setting up apps on your device. Bring your library card and staff will be available to help you set up Libby, the app for using library ebooks and eaudiobook­s.

3D printing is now available at the Summerside Rotary Library. 3D printers let you print 3D objects like toys, project models, phone cases, replacemen­t parts, and much more.

Use ready-to-print designs from websites like Thingivers­e or create your own.

Bring your file to the library and we will take care of the printing. Currently we are only able to print models in a single colour at a time, and we cannot guarantee the availabili­ty of specific colours. The cost for printing is $2 per item plus $0.10/gram. Visit the library for more informatio­n about 3D printing.
