Together We Read

Join us as we are thrilled to have a special Together We Read featuring this year’s Medal for Writing title. This title will be announced on 19 June and be available to readers on either the Libby or Sora apps from 20th June – 4th July.

What Is Together We Read? 

Together We Read is a Digital Book Club for participating libraries and schools in the United Kingdom. 

Together We Read is an opportunity for those with a valid library card or school credentials to read the same digital title at the same time without any wait lists or holds for a two-week period. Participating in this event allows your library to offer a new simultaneous use title for community-wide access from your library at no cost. It’s an opportunity for your library to generate more interest in your digital collection beyond the bestsellers. 

The Together We Read program is open to all OverDrive library partners in your country. The title will automatically be added to your digital collection at the start of the program. To borrow the Together We Read title, your users will simply log in to your digital collection and the ebook will be prominently displayed on your Libby or Sora collection and discoverable through the digital library catalogue. 

If you aren’t an OverDrive partner, but are interested in joining Libby or Sora, please visit company.overdrive.com for more information.
