Overdrive is a web-based digital media platform that enables library patrons to download popular digital audio books, eBooks, music, and video from your library's web site.
Here's how it works: Patrons install free digital media software such as Adobe Reader, Mobipocket Reader, or the OverDrive Media Console™. The software is available for use on many devices, such as laptops, Pocket PCs, PDAs, and even Smartphones!
Patrons then choose from the digital content we have purchased, such as audio books and eBooks in subjects such as fiction, nonfiction, best-sellers, test preparation, children's, and foreign language. Classical music, feature films, movie classics, concert videos, and other popular materials are also available.
Patrons download and enjoy their digital titles, anytime, anywhere. Digital media can also be transferred to compatible devices, such as MP3 players, laptops, Pocket PCs, and Palm OS devices. Audio titles may be burned to CD and played in the car. (Transfer and burn permissions vary by title.)
