Note: We are currently updating all digital library websites to include OverDrive Read and a streamlined user experience (learn more). New how-to videos are also in the works and will be released in the coming months.
If you are using an updated library website, the Digital Library Website Overview video will help you get started browsing, borrowing, and enjoying titles from your library’s digital collection.
If your library website has not been updated yet, please skip to our videos for mobile applications, eBook readers, and audio players for help browsing, borrowing, and enjoying titles on various devices. Users on an updated library site can also learn more about specific devices from these videos.
For additional help, all users can visit OverDrive Help.
