OverDrive NEW WEBSITE COMING SOON! Our OverDrive website is having a redesign - look out for our updated website from the 5th September!
OverDrive is a collection of 1000s of ebooks and audiobooks that can be downloaded to a variety of devices. You can borrow ten titles at a time for up to 21 days and books can be reserved if out on loan. There is no need to “return” the book - once the lending period has expired the book will no longer be accessible. As well as the main Overdrive site, you can access the Kids & Teen Overdrive site too.
Apps
OverDrive has a range of easy to use apps. There are instructions for using the OverDrive app for Apple; Android; Windows Phone; Windows 8 &10; and Kindle Fire.
Computers, ebook readers and MP3 players
See our instructions on using OverDrive on a computer, MP3 player or ebook reader (Nook, Kobo or Sony eReader - OverDrive is incompatible with all Kindles except the Kindle Fire).
