Borrow free eBooks, eAudiobooks and magazines using your library card number.
Our new eBook and eAudiobook service, BorrowBox, is here!
Join us in Church Square, St Helens on Thursday 11th October, 10am – 4pm to celebrate.
You can borrow eBooks and eAudiobooks for free with your library card. The BorrowBox app is available to download from the Apple App store for iOS users and the Google Play store for Android users.
Kindle Fire users can also download the app (see instructions), while PC users can access BorrowBox through their website – which also has a help page including frequently asked questions.
