From 1 May 2024, BorrowBox will offer library members access to newspapers and magazines as well as eBooks and audiobooks. The Libby and PressReader services will no longer be available to library members.
The novels nominated and shortlisted for the Award will be available for readers to borrow from Dublin City Libraries and from public libraries around Ireland, or can be borrowed as eBooks and some as eAudiobooks on the free Borrowbox app, available to all public library users.
Congratulations to Senior Librarians Noreen Herlihy and Adrienne Gilmartin, also their respective teams, for all the great work. The Awards recognise inspiring adult, community, and further education initiatives across Ireland.
