Audiobooks and online reading were the stories of the year at Shetland Library, which noticed a change of literary habits during the pandemic.
With the library closed for a time during lockdown, borrowers turned in larger numbers to eBooks and audiobooks to maintain their reading.
The library’s most borrowed list shows the top spot for ‘physical loans’ in adult fiction went to Jojo Moyes’ The Giver of Stars, a novel about packhorse librarians in America.
When ebooks and audiobooks were added it was checked out 146 times.
