A valid Ocean County Library card will be a passport to a world of free music, videos and audiobooks through the Freegal streaming and downloading service beginning Monday, Aug 10.

Library system spokesman Thomas Mongelli said the service, provided by Virginia-based Library Ideas, contains more than 16 million songs, more than a million albums, more than 75,000 music videos and more than 9,000 audio books from 100 countries, released through Sony Music Entertainment. New titles are added daily.
