The internet-based READS service is hosted by the OverDrive® digital content platform. OverDrive® provides a user-friendly interface and an app, Libby, that features private user accounts, several browsing and searching methods for users, a holds feature, email availability notification, and a help feature. The READS Libby app also has filtering features that allow parents or guardians to work with their children to filter titles by age category. The vendor for READS is determined every five years through a Request for Proposal (RFP) that is conducted by Library & Archives.
How can I make a suggestion for books to be included in READS?
Anyone interested in offering suggestions for titles to be included in READS, please email Reads.Support@tn.gov. Such requests will be reviewed in accordance with the entire READS Collection Development Policy as well as available funding.
