What is OverDrive?
OverDrive is a free service offered by your library or school that lets you borrow digital content (like ebooks and audiobooks) anytime, anywhere. Every OverDrive collection is slightly different because each library or school picks the digital content they want for their users.
All you need to get started with free digital content from your library or school is a library card or student ID.
Explore the sections below to learn about some of the things you can do with OverDrive.

Libby (for public libraries)
If you belong to a public library, we recommend that you install our new app, Libby. Libby is the easiest way to borrow and enjoy digital content from your library.
Sora (for schools)
Our new Sora app is made just for students, and is available for most schools who use OverDrive.
The OverDrive app (for everyone)
If you can't use Libby or Sora (because of device or library/school compatibility), you can install the original OverDrive app to borrow and enjoy digital content on many devices.

Through OverDrive, you can borrow Kindle Books to read on Kindle devices or Kindle reading apps.
Note: Kindle Books are currently available for U.S. libraries and schools only.
