How to resume downloading an audiobook in the OverDrive app

The OverDrive app has limited availability. If you can't use the OverDrive app, we encourage you to try our newer reading app, Libby. Get started with Libby on Android, iOS, Fire tablets, or in your browser.

If you've already downloaded some parts of an audiobook to your app Bookshelf, you can continue downloading it from the OverDrive app (mobile or desktop). There's no need to go to your library's digital collection to download additional audiobook parts. Use the steps below to download the rest of the audiobook to your app Bookshelf.
