On December 1st, the Boundless eBook platform will be discontinued due to the shutdown of its parent company, Baker & Taylor.
Unfortunately, this means SJPL patrons will lose access to current checkouts, holds, and reading history. Boundless does not provide an option to export your data, so we recommend making note of any information you want to save. For example, you can use the My Shelves feature in the library catalog to save lists of titles you’ve read or want to read.
