We are excited to announce that GLAC has been selected to receive $40,000 to build our eBook collections as part of the California State Library's eBooks for All program! This collection will be available through a new app called Palace, which is built on the SimplyE platform. California libraries who participated in this program will be developing a shared collection in the Palace app, which currently has over 87,000 copies of more than 30,000 titles. We are excited to be able to participate in developing this collection and sharing the Palace app with our patrons.
