As DVDs and VHS tapes are popular items in your library's collection, they are also typically costly to buy and replace. OverDrive offers the industry's best selection of download video as well as the option to manage, protect and download proprietary video content. It's video anytime, without handling, damage, or late fees!

With the best selection, services, and user experience, OverDrive Video can complement your collection and help you capitalize on the emerging trend of download video!

How to Get Video

Current Library Partners: Videos are delivered with the same easy-to-use platform as audiobook, music, and eBook formats, so you can add video for just the cost of the content! No setup fee! You may select your own titles just as you do with the rest of your collection. Or, you can select from a recommended core collection. Log in to Content Reserve now to start ordering.

With your initial order, we will add video to your collection with a simple website refresh. The process will be seamless and you will review the website before any changes are made live.
