2025 One eRead / Un Livrel Program

In 2025, One eRead Canada selected Valid by Chris Bergeron, with the English version translated by Natalia Hero. 
Valid was available in April without waitlists or holds so that all Canadians could read along at the same time.

Interview with the Author

The author, Chris Bergeron, sat down with Mattea Roach from CBC’s Bookends on April 23rd at 7 pm ET. Watch the interview here or listen to it on the podcast.

The Initiative

The Canadian Urban Libraries Council / Conseil des Bibliothèques Urbaines du Canada (CULC/CBUC) has created an opportunity for all public libraries to participate in a Canada-wide digital reading program. The initiative is similar to a “one book, one city” initiative, but on a national scale and in digital format available in both English and French.
