“We are excited to launch this improved service to help patrons decide on what to read next,” says John Huddy, Director of Handley Regional Library System.  “This service connects to our library catalog and our Ebook, audiobook programs – including Hoopla and Libby - so patrons can get real time access to the materials they crave. Especially now, when we are staying home to stop the spread of COVID-19, it’s important for the library system to offer these types of tools for continued access to information and entertainment.”
