A guide to help patrons using Staley Library's eRead Illinois subscription.

What is eRead Illinois?

Staley Library is a member of eRead Illinois, a library of 35,000+ eBooks and audiobooks shared by a consortium of over 400 Illinois public, academic, and special libraries.

Items in the library are primarily for an adult or young adult audience, though there are some middle grade and young reader materials as well.

Items are accessible either via the eRead Illinois website or the Boundless mobile app.

Note: Axis360 (the previous eRead Illinois mobile app) was updated on September 27, 2023 to the Boundless app.
