If you’re trying to keep yourself or your children fully stocked with books to read while you’re stuck at home, the Hassenfeld Library is here to help.

Sora
We now provide a large collection of e-books and audiobooks through the Sora app. Instructions for logging into Sora are on our LibGuides and in this video. If there’s a book you want in e-book or audio format, ask a librarian if we can add it to Sora.

Epic!
All K-5 families have access to Epic! School during school hours, and limited free access is available during non-school hours as well. Learn more about how Epic! works on our LibGuides.

But What Should I Read?
We offer personal recommendations by email or through this form. For more suggestions, visit our What Should I Read? LibGuide, where we’ve collected award lists, themed booklists, and other tools that can help you find a book you’ll love.
