The Internet Archive is suspending book waitlists as a response
to COVID-19, worldwide quarantines, and school and library
closures.

Announcing The National Emergency Library
During this unprecedented time in history, access to printed
books is becoming difficult or impossible. COVID-19 is forcing
students, educators, and everyday readers to rely on digital
books more than ever before. That’s why the Internet Archive has
temporarily suspended all waitlists, allowing you to immediately
check out any of the 1.4 million books currently in our lending
library. Until June 30th or the end of the US national emergency
(whichever comes later), every borrowable book will be
immediately accessible by anyone—creating, in effect, a National
Emergency Library.

As of March 19th, almost a billion students around the world
have been affected by school closures, obstructing their access
to educational materials. Thousands of community and academic
libraries have been forced to close their physical locations as
well, further complicating the lives of readers. We hope that
this new policy will provide everybody with the resources to
keep reading—whether you need classic literature, science
textbooks, genre fiction, or even just bedtime story material.
We have also doubled the number of books you can check out at a
time from 5 to 10, so borrow away!

All these materials can also be found on Open Library—our online
catalogue of published books. And not only can you find books in
Open Library, but you can also curate and share reading lists,
browse by genre to find new discoveries, and easily share what
you're reading on social media. If we don't have the book in our
collection, then the Sponsor A Book feature
https://openlibrary.org/sponsorship
lets you decide what we digitize next!

If you have questions about the new policy, you can browse our
FAQ here

Here at the Internet Archive, we believe that access to
knowledge is a fundamental human right—and in a time of
quarantines and school closures, providing that access is more
important than ever. We hope that this change in our lending
policy helps you find solutions during this period of
uncertainty.
Thanks for being one of our patrons.
