OverDrive's Big Library Read is returning June 12 and you and your community can help choose the title! Take a quick survey to vote on what title readers from around the world will be enjoying at the same time this summer. On the voting page you’ll find eight different options to choose from. Which are you most excited to read?

Share widely with your patrons so they can offer input as well!
