Most of us don’t like waiting for things – buses, payday or library books for that matter. Our Library2go ebook and audiobook services generally work like a regular library – when someone has borrowed the book, then its not available until that person returns it. Lately though we’ve seen the addition of quite a few unlimited access titles throughout these services meaning that queuing is sometimes a thing of the past!
OverDrive – Always available ebook titles
A small, but perfectly formed collection of unlimited access ebooks from Canongate publishers is now available on the homepage of OverDrive and Libby, Featuring fiction and non-fiction titles from authors such as Matt Haig, Caro Ramsay, Jess Kidd, Ambrose Parry, Scarlett Thomas and Patricia MacDonald theres something for everyone. OverDrive also run three or more Big Library Read bookgroups a year featuring unlimited ebooks (and sometimes audobooks!).
RBdigital – Always available audiobook titles
You might not know this, but hundreds of the audiobooks available through our RBdigital service as multi-access – so no queues. Enjoy instant access to authors such as Val McDermid, Santa Montefiore, Tony Parsons, Jeffery Deaver, Marian Keyes, Ian Rankin and Jane Fallon. RBdigital can be played on your phone, tablet or computer.
BorrowBox – Campaign titles
A new feature to BorrowBox audiobooks is the addition of campaign titles – so a cracking audiobook that everyone wants to read, available to everyone to download. Our first campaign starts on 23 September and features Peter James’s bestseller Love You Dead. The book will be available for a month with unlimited access. Visit BorrowBox regularily to look out for new campaign titles!
