O’Reilly for Public Libraries

O’Reilly for Public Libraries, exclusively available via ProQuest, connects users to in-demand technology and business resources in a modern digital learning ecosystem that includes more than 50,000 e-books, over 30,000 hours of video, and resources such as audiobooks, courses, case studies, and expert playlists.

Unlike a GED, COHS enables libraries to offer adult learners accredited high school diplomas along with career certificates in one of 10 high-demand employment fields. Participating libraries only pay for student scholarships, and RAILS/IHLS libraries qualify for a volume discount.
