Libraries Transform Digital Reading

OFPL joins public libraries nationwide in a digital reading program September 14th – 28th  by offering access to the same eBook for a two-week period through the Libraries Transform Book Pick.

The eBook selection is Lauren Francis-Sharma’s epic saga Book of the Little Axe. Ambitious and masterfully wrought, it is an incredible journey, spanning decades and oceans from Trinidad to the American West during the tumultuous days of warring colonial powers and westward expansion.

During the lending period, eBook copies will be available without waitlists or holds through U.S. public libraries using OverDrive. Readers will only need a library card and the Libby app to borrow and read the eBook.
