Hello Jamie! This is Annie with HMCPL. My understanding is that Library Ideas (the company behind Freading) gets new titles every week or so - they may have just gotten a large acquisition from this particular publisher in this time period, and you're seeing the whole catalog from that publisher. I think in a week or so we'll probably seeing some different titles. But please let me know if you have further questions!
Thanks, Annie. I was hoping that was the case when it first happened, but more of these books keep getting dumped in. It's been going on for several weeks now. Maybe they'll run out soon. I hope somebody is enjoying them!
Ha ha! I will keep an eye out now that I am aware, and I can check in with Library Ideas soon if we don't start seeing other content pop up! I'll let you know what I find out. Thanks for letting us know!
Hi Annie - Up through yesterday, the Freading site was still cluttered with hundreds of these "books", but today they are all gone! All of them, as far as I can tell.
Hi Jamie!
Oh yay, that is good news - glad to hear it! Thank you for keeping in touch about it. Happy 2020 reading!

The New Arrivals function is now useless, because it's full of hundreds of these books.
