The Prince William Public Library System is proud to offer a new service: Wowbrary! This new, free e-mail alert service showcases the newest titles purchased by the Library System each week. Find out about the latest bestsellers, DVDs, music CDs, and audiobooks all from the comfort of your home or office! Whenever you spot something of interest, just click on the “borrow” button to place a request for the title right away.

Every Wednesday you will receive an e-mail with the Library System’s latest acquisitions. Wowbrary is totally free and does not require a library card, however, to place a title on request, you will need a library card barcode number. Library cards are free as well—just stop by your local library to get a card!
