Playaways from Home

Playaways can be mailed directly to your home while the Parsippany-Troy Hills Public Library is closed.

Contact ptchildrens@parsippanylibrary.org or call 973-887-5150 ext. 233 if you would like to enroll in this exciting new program offered by the Parsippany Library.

Playaways are preloaded audiobooks that can be listened to at home without any additional devices needed.
Playaways are free to borrow but customers will need to provide a home address and a library card number. If you don’t currently have a library card, the librarian can help you register for a card online.
This service is only for Parsippany residents.
Playaways must be returned to the Parsippany-Troy Hills Public Library when it reopens.
Titles are of interest to students from 2^nd-12^th grade. The librarian can recommend a Playaway based on your child’s interests and grade level.
