Demand #eBooksforAll
Beginning November 1, 2019, Macmillan Publishers will allow libraries to purchase only one copy of each new ebook title for the first eight weeks after a book's release. This would limit public libraries from providing access to information for all. Tell Macmillan Publishers you demand access to #eBooksForAll.
