BRTA's Browse, Borrow, Board11:00AM / Thursday, November 02, 2023 | |
PITTSFIELD, Mass. — The Berkshire Regional Transit Authority (BRTA), in conjunction with the Boston Public Library, Massachusetts Library System, and Massachusetts Department of Transportation, has launched the "Browse, Borrow, Board" campaign.
This partnership strives to promote literacy, local libraries, and public transportation.
On the BRTA buses and at the Pittsfield Intermodal Center, signs will be placed that include a QR code to access the Boston Public Library, so customers can read while they ride.
Riders sign up using an email address and password. This provides access to the children's section, audiobooks, newspapers, and magazines, amongst many other selections. Some of BRTA's bus routes can be an hour long and our customers can now access an additional avenue to occupy that time.
