Many of you are using tablets and other electronic devices to read the books and magazines you love. If you have a library card, one of the options available to you is the Overdrive application.

Overdrive is an application you can download for free. Its purpose is to connect you to your local library’s electronic resources. You’ll save money by borrowing the book instead of buying it. Using the application on your tablet, smart phone or computer means that you’ll have less clutter at home. (We know that books are treasures, but sometimes it’s nice to reduce clutter.)

How to use the Overdrive application

  1. Download the app to your device
  2. Sign in using your library card number and PIN
  3. search the catalogue
  4. download the item you want to read
