E-Books now available in Torfaen Libraries

Torfaen Libraries are now working in partnership with other South Wales authorities to provide a new free e-Book service.
Visit the new website at  www.torfaen.gov.uk/libraries and  follow the link to eBooks for Wales. You will need to be registered with Torfaen libraries, and have a PIN attached to your record. 
The service offers a wide range of titles, including biographies, travel guides, self-help books, a wide variety of fiction titles and even children’s books, and may be downloaded to selected
e-readers, as well as your computer, laptop, tablet or smartphone.  You may borrow up to four books for up to three weeks, after which they will disappear from your device.

No overdue fines, browse when the library is closed and choose from thousands of regularly updated titles.
