What happens next?
Once we receive your completed application it usually takes two or three days for us to do our bit and send your first books. We also send an audio guide on how to use the service so that you get the best out of it - or you can read these notes here. 
Generally, we send books that are suitable for your age. If you don't like a book we have sent, just send it back and we will send another.
You can also set up your own reading list. You can do this online once your membership has been accepted - please ask us for a password. To help you choose your books, see the Press Play page which has lots of brilliant reading ideas. See the How to choose your books page for details of catalogues. If you would like help to choose your books, please phone us on 01296 432 339.
Once a year we will send you Buzzword, our audio magazine, compiled by young people specially for you. Listen to the current issue here.
We always make sure you are never without a book and if you would like extra, because you are going on holiday for example, just ask us.
