Choosing books

We can help you get the book you want:

  • If you are a user of the Talking Book Service and just want to find out what you can borrow, go to our Talking Book Catalogue.
  • You can also search the Library Catalogue online where you can check to see what titles we have by your favourite authors, or a particular title or subject. All our records include a short summary of the book to help you choose.

Your stories

Mary’s story – Mary joined a Telephone Book Club and meets new people over the phone who share her passion. "I live alone. I’ve always been quite active but suddenly I find that I’m not. Reading is my biggest pleasure, I’ve read all my life. The group is very good if you live alone. You get to know other people." Mary’s full story.
