ALTHOUGH doors to local libraries may be shut, members can still access eBooks and movies during lockdowns.

The Survivors by Jane Harper has been the most borrowed eBook during lockdown. Four novels by Julia Quinn rounded out the top five.

Frankston City Libraries also began using Kanopy for movie streaming last year. Library members can use the app to watch free films and TV shows on demand.

Frankston Library staff have continued working hard to entertain, inform, and connect with people while everyone is stuck inside. They still run three live story time sessions each week on Facebook, 11am on Tuesdays and Thursdays as well as 6pm each Monday.

Acting libraries manager Laura Antoniak said “we know Storytime brings so much joy to children and families and while we can’t be together, the popular Storytime sessions are being held online with Bev, Kerry and Monica. Sometimes in these unsettling times, it’s nice to see a familiar face. We hope you can join us!”
