Are you all ears today?

Well you should be! We started our new service with Overdrive today, yea! The titles are in the catalog, the link is on the page ..... look under Downloads and we are getting training to assist patrons who may be stuck.

Our Overdrive service is limited to just audio books, so don't go thinking that our Overdrive collection is just like Denver Public Library - not now!

Here's a couple of hints when working with patrons 1) they can't download to Macintosh computers and 2) they can't download to an iPod. Besides that, it is similar to Netlibrary's in that a software needs to be downloaded.

I feel soooo 20th century when i confess to not listening to audio books. Why? Not because i don't want to... what better way to pass the time on a treadmill? It's because my household is mac and i have no audio device in my car. don't own an mp3 player, either. this probably makes me, like, in the .000001% of the population that can't/doesn't use Overdrive, but i'll figure it out (Santa, are you listening?).

take a few minutes to browse around in Overdrive, download something yr interested in and let me know how your experience went!
