On January 1, 2015, Sun Prairie Public Library began offering Flipster, a digital magazine subscription service from EBSCO Information Services, to our patrons. Flipster provides easy access to digital magazines for online browsing via a computer desktop or any mobile device. Patrons can access the content on library computers or remotely at home, adding 24-hour access to titles in the library's subscription. A download app for offline magazine reading is available for iPad users, with another currently in development for Android devices.


Readers can browse magazines by category as well as perform searches for specific periodicals, and zoom in and out for better readability.
