The Charleston County Public Library has been working toward becoming more tech-savvy, and they’ve just taken things to the next level: They’re now offering free music downloads to library members. And it’s not just classical and ’70s soft rock — you’ll find music from popular artists like Adele, Beyoncé, Kelly Clarkson, Pitbull, and more.

The system uses the Freegal Music Service, which allows users to hear a sample clip before downloading the MP3s, and it keeps track of downloads so users can manage their music. You can download up to three items per week. Find out more at ccpl.org.
