Wondering how to keep your children reading during the holidays?
All Tasmanian Government school students can now borrow a wide range of eBooks for free through the Sora app.
Students can access eBooks, magazines, and graphic novels using the Sora app on their device. Items are specially selected and age appropriate for students from Prep to Year 12. Library membership is not required.
If you need help getting started, speak to your child’s teacher or school library staff member.

Not at a government school?
If your child goes to an independent or catholic school your child can access thousands of items in our eLibrary via the Libby App by using their Libraries Tasmania membership.
