ATLANTA — The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has partnered with the Georgia Public Library Service to offer free digital access to AJC.com for more than 4.9 million library cardholders across 60 Georgia public library systems.
Library cardholders can access unlimited digital content from the AJC, including breaking news, politics, investigations, sports and culture, for free via Wi-Fi at Georgia’s public libraries.

As part of the rollout, the AJC will offer a special new subscriber deal to library cardholders at participating libraries for access outside of the library.
The AJC and Georgia Public Library Service will support this offer through a revenue sharing arrangement, with participating libraries receiving a share of revenue from new subscriptions they help generate.
In addition, the library’s GALILEO service offers free access to newspapers throughout the country, both modern and historical, as well as television and radio news transcripts.
