In the film the crime-fighting dogs go on an epic adventure - and you can too when you visit your local library. Libraries provide access to e-books, audio books, movies, video games, and more that take us on fantastic journeys. To celebrate the film, ALA has teamed up with Ryder and crew to give away thousands of bookmarks libraries can share with their communities. Featuring Chase, Marshall and Skye, the bookmark celebrates the new film and will delight fans of Ryder and everyone's favorite heroic pups. Fifty libraries will be randomly selected to receive 200-300 bookmarks free of charge shipped to your library.
