OverDrive: Public Library Connect (Sora)

AudioFile SYNC Teen Audiobook Program

AudioFile SYNC is a free program that puts free audiobooks in teens' ears every summer.  Through a partnership with OverDrive, teens can use the Sora app to download (and keep) two free audiobooks per month.  Watch for details about Summer 2024 titles and how to participate.

Sora Sweet Reads

Sora Sweet Reads is designed for schools in the United States and Canada (for our global program, click here) to encourage students to keep reading all year long. We’re offering a collection of free, simultaneous-use ebooks (and select audiobooks) that spans grades K-12. These titles will be available to participating schools and prominently displayed in Sora so it’s easy for students to find their next sweet read.

The program runs from May 13th-August 26th, 2024.
