No holds. No waiting. Everyone can read it at the same time. It's a dream come true, isn't it?
Libraries Transform has partnered with OverDrive to create a new digital book club for all U.S. libraries that work with OverDrive. It's first #LTBookPick is Kassandra Montag's After the Flood.
The digital book club runs until October 21st. Readers can chime in on social media using the #LTBookPick hashtag. After October 21st, the e-book goes back to checking out one copy at a time.
Why are they doing this? The digital book club was formed in response to publishers making digital book buying even harder for libraries. With the #LTBookPick, library patrons have a fantastic book that is guaranteed to be available from October 7 through the 21st.
Don't know what to read next? Immerse yourself in After the Flood!
I am loving Halloween decorating and crafts this year! There's nothing like having fall family time--cozied up after sundown, doing some quiet-ish activities, talking about all the fun fall things you can do. It's easy to find kids activities in the ICPL catalog. Just search for "Halloween decorations juvenile literature." Check the Availability box that says "At the library" and place a hold for Lobby Grab & Go! -Melody
