Library eBooks on the Go

th (31)There’s a new Sheriff in town and he’s about to take you to a new level of reading books.

I remember the days of driving to the local library to check out my favorite book. Then along came this thing called, “books on tape,” where there is an actual prerecorded person that will read books to you.  Books on tape probably made your drive to work a lot quicker.  An individual could sit in traffic and catch up on the latest and greatest from Anthony Robbins That Will Transform Your Life, T. D. Jake’s Reposition Yourself: Living Life Without Limits and other great authors.

Fast forward to the 21 century and technology has been injected with massive steroids.

Borrow eBooks, audiobooks, and streaming video from your library using OverDrive on your iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch. More than 30,000 libraries worldwide offer titles from OverDrive, so download the app and find your next book today!

Everyone has access to check out books right from his or her IOS or Android mobile device or tablet.

The App is called OverDrive.   Various ebooks or audiobooks can be downloaded and checked out in right at your fingertips.

OverDrive connects you with your local library.  You must have a library card to use the App. I love this aspect of the App because it doesn’t completely take away the awesome experience of utilizing a brick and mortar library. OverDrive has hard copy ebooks, as well as audio ebooks.

It takes a little time to maneuver around the App, but once you figure it out you will love it.

If the book you are wanting isn’t available then you can put it on hold and the library branch will notify you as soon as it’s available to check out.
