IT’S e-asy reckons thrilled Newton Library regular Jennifer Cain.
Jennifer, pictured right, with her son, Sam and head of Library Services Sue Williamson is celebrating after she won a new e-reader in a competition to launch the borough’s new e-books service.
The Dell Venue Pro 8 was top prize in a draw open to customers at the borough’s 13 libraries.
The e-book service allows access to local libraries from anywhere via www.sthelens.gov.uk/ebooks and works with the majority of phones, tablets and e-readers.
Customers can borrow up to five e-books, with up to 1,000 titles available for all ages. Library membership (which is free) is required.
There is no late fine or charge for e-books - the book simply disappears – but they can be renewed.
