Reading by flashlight

Did you read by flashlight under the covers when you were a child? So excited to read, desperate to find out what happened next?

Now, there's no time to get to the library, no time to pick out a book to read for fun.
What is an old flashlight reader to do?

Yes, I'm going to send you to GALILEO and then to netLibrary! You can read an entire book on-line instead of surfing the web during a break (well at least a portion of the book - a little at a time- kind of like the old days).

GALILEO staff have worked with netLibrary to authenticate access through GALILEO. One password to GALILEO gets you in and then you have access to the netLibrary book for 15 minutes. You can create your "free" account in netLibrary and borrow the book for 4 hours.
NMTC has purchased additional sets of e-books. Our patrons have access to over 34,000 electronic books in netLibrary.

The password for home use of GALILEO is available to the citizens of Georgia from your librarian. Some resources noted in this BLOG are only available to NMTC patrons.
