Getting started with OverDrive

Use these steps to get started with free ebooks, audiobooks, and more from your library or school:

1. Find your library or school

Find and open your library or school's digital collection using one of the following:

  • Libby (for public, corporate, and academic libraries)
  • Sora (for schools)
  • overdrive.com
  • The legacy OverDrive app (available for Fire tablets worldwide and on other devices in select countries)

2. Borrow

Borrow a title from your library or school's digital collection. You'll need a valid library card or student ID to complete this step.

3. Enjoy

You can enjoy many titles immediately online, download them for offline use, or send borrowed ebooks to a Kindle device (U.S. libraries and schools only).

If you're on a computer, you may also be able to transfer titles to compatible ereaders.
