With growing demand for ebooks and tightening budgets, the Connecticut State Library (CSL) set out to find a digital solution that worked for every public library in the state—regardless of size or vendor relationships.

The result? The Palace Project.

As the foundation of CSL’s statewide eGO Program, Palace now supports over 170 public and academic libraries across Connecticut. The platform combines existing digital collections with state-purchased content from Lyrasis, Baker & Taylor, and more—all in one simple app.

Palace makes it easy for libraries to:

• Expand access to digital content without hurting their budget
• Serve every reader across the state—including those without access to a local library

Now, any Connecticut resident can get a digital library card and start borrowing—no barriers, waitlists, or hassle.
