Why read alone when you can read with others?

Big Library Read (BLR), facilitated by OverDrive, connects millions of readers around the world with the same eBook at the same time without any wait lists or holds.

The program is free through the Hawai‘i State Public Library System and all you need to get started reading is to get a library card.

To find out more about their next big read go to BigLibraryRead.com.
