By employing the use of Wi-Fi technology, we are fostering literacy to all ages, reading level and subjects of interest.

Long waits at the DMV can be whisked away with the flip of a digital page, thanks to a partnership between Dutchess County and the Poughkeepsie Public Library.

A free digital library has popped up at the Poughkeepsie DMV at 22 Market Street that will offer access to hundreds of books and reading materials to be download for free – without needing an app or library card.

Visitors to the first floor office area of 22 Market Street can access the Pop Up Library by using a smartphone, laptop, or tablet to search available Wi-Fi networks and connect to the “Pop Up Library.” Once enabled, patrons should head to www.popuplib.com, which contains hundreds of books searchable by subject, title, or author which can be saved to read offline for the duration of the loan.
