With OverDrive, you can borrow and enjoy free ebooks, audiobooks, and more from your library or school’s digital collection. All you need to get started is an internet connection, a library card or student ID, and these three steps:
1. Find your library
Find and open your library or school’s digital collection using one of the following:
- Our new Libby app (recommended for public library users on Android, iOS, or Windows 10)
- The original OverDrive app (for all other library or school users on Android, Chromebooks, iOS, Fire tablets, or Windows 8/10)
- OverDrive.com (for any user on a Windows or Mac computer)
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 only) for the duration of your lending period.
You can also transfer titles from your computer to compatible ereaders or MP3 players.
Using Hoopla
If you have a library card from the Gladys E. Kelly Public Library, you have access to another eBook source called Hoopla.
Users can access Hoopla via their website:
Or by downloading the app on the Google Play Store (for Android devices), or via the App Store (for iPhones or iPads).
Users can create an account with their Gladys E. Kelly Public Library card number, and gain access to 5 borrows per month of either eBooks, Audio Books or Movies and TV Shows. These items never have a wait time, and can be renewed as long as you have more borrows remaining.
