OVERDRIVE

OverDrive provides patron access to digital content (audiobooks, eBooks, and streaming video) via smartphones, computers, and portable devices. 

Patrons of member libraries access content through OverDrive's award-winning Libby app, the OverDrive app, and the Ontario Library Service Download Centre site.

Enrollment & Fees

This consortium is still open to public libraries that serve a population of under 100,000, that are not already using OverDrive, and who have an ILS (Integrated Library System). Learn more about enrollment and view our current fee schedule.

OverDrive Advantage

OverDrive's Advantage program gives members of the shared collection the ability to purchase popular titles with their own funds - exclusively for their library patrons - on our shared collection website.

For more information, please visit the Advantage web site. It will direct you to the sales department at OverDrive, who can help with the enrollment process.

If you have any questions, please contact Beth Harding, Digital Licensing Coordinator.

Local Content

Do you have any locally produced materials that you would like to make available to the consortium? Local Content can be shared as EPUBs, MP3s, and MP4s (streaming video) and is a great way to highlight your local writers, history, and more.
