BC Libraries Coop

This resource is for BC library staff using Library2Go (OverDrive). This document contains a list of ebook and audiobook for which the BC Libraries Co-op purchased rights for unlimited, simultaneous use. These books are ideal candidates for training and demonstration purposes because checkouts do not “count” toward any kind of quota or expiration.
These titles were updated in August 9, 2021 and will expire August 9, 2022.. When titles expire, this document will be replaced with a fresh batch of titles. If it's past that deadline, please email Co-op Licensing.
**The document filename contains the expiry date.**
Cheers!
