Draft:BiblioLED

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

BiblioLED is a Portuguese public library for digital reading and borrowing, launched in January 2025. The borrowing service is accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week, via smartphones, tablets, online readers and e-readers.[1][2]

The free borrowing service includes digital books and audiobooks made available through participating municipal libraries that are part of the Portuguese National Network of Public Libraries (RNBP).[3]

Although the largest percentage of books available are in Portuguese, the platform also has ebooks available in English, French and Spanish.

Operation

[edit]

The BiblioLED catalog consists of a national collection available to all libraries participating in the RNBP and 25 regional collections, accessible only within each Intermunicipal Network and Metropolitan Network. The user must be registered at a public library in a metropolitan or intermunicipal region in order to use the available catalog, and can simultaneously request two books and one audiobook, which are available for 21 days.[4]
