Free Online Digital Kids Books!

In addition to the wonderful Tumblebooks (click here) which is regularly available, there is a special Digital Library called myON available this summer!

As part of Summer Reading at New York Libraries, the State Education Department has again partnered with myON to bring thousands of enhanced digital books to children from birth through 8th grade and their families all around the state. Unlimited, 24/7 access to the myON digital library will be available through a single shared account login from May 1 through September 30, 2019.

For more information about myON, including instructions on how to log in to and start using myON (available in English and Spanish), visit the Summer Reading at New York Libraries myON page.
