End of Hoopla Digital access and shift to Libby and Kanopy
Sachse
Summary
The library's Hoopla app stops working for patrons September 30, and anything saved there will be gone after that. The money is being redirected into more e-books and audiobooks on Libby plus Kanopy, a new streaming service with movies, documentaries, and unlimited kids' content.

Impact analysis
No new spending — the same budget is just moving from Hoopla to Libby and Kanopy.
Patrons get a wider selection of e-books, audiobooks, and streaming content with their own monthly tickets instead of a shared borrow pool.
Hoopla users lose their platform and any saved history or favorites unless they save them before September 30.
