#Books Unbanned Card for California Teens

The freedom to #read is a fundamental right. To help support teenagers ages 13-18 years old in California, #LACountyLibrary ’s Books Unbanned initiative offers free and unrestricted access to the Library’s entire digital #eBook and #audiobook collection on Libby, by OverDrive, which includes many frequently-banned titles. The Books Unbanned card allows 5 check outs at a time and is valid for one year.
