BA Library ebooks selection

This is an exciting time for the Bessemer Academy Library!  With a
generous grant from our Board we now have books available in THREE
formats: a regular hardback book, a web-hosted ebook, and a scan-to-read
ebook.   Students may either check out the physical book from the BA Library,
access the book on the Internet*, or scan a QR Code in the library with the QR Reader
app on their tablet or phone.  Everyone may even read a specific ebook at
the same time!
