Wisconsin students are now able to log into Wisconsin’s Digital Library from the OverDrive school app, Sora, using a public library card. This feature is available without any action on the part of the public library and the users are subject to the circulation and checkout limits of Wisconsin’s Digital Library. The public library will receive credit for any circulation of those owned materials.
The WPLC Project Managers are working with the ALA sharing statistics on ebook and digital audiobook usage at a national level. Larra Clark from ALA is asking for examples of traditional book readers becoming avid ebook readers due to library closures. If you have anecdotes you are willing to share with us, please email wplc-info@wils.org This information will be shared with ALA's media lead, Macey Morales and reporters on a national level so obtaining permission if names are used will be necessary.
