Overdrive Just Got Easier
Our patrons love using Overdrive and Libby to borrow their eBooks and audiobooks. For years the we’ve maintained our own collection while also contributing to Kentucky Libraries Unbound. We’re excited to announce that on November 24th, we’ll be moving all of our collection to Kentucky Libraries Unbound!
The reason we’re making this change is so that our patrons will only have to visit one Overdrive website in order to browse and borrow great content. No more switching between libraries in the Overdrive and Libby apps. We’ll still order books that our patrons will have priority access to and by offering those titles within the same website it’ll help keep your wait times short.
Once the move is complete patrons will have one place to go to enjoy their Overdrive and Libby digital media experience, Kentucky Libraries Unbound. There you’ll be able to now search for titles that are exclusive to our patrons, as well as over 100,000 other titles that are contributed by libraries across the state.
If you haven’t already, take a look at Kentucky Libraries Unbound and log in using your library card and sign up so you’ll be ready after November 24th.
