Overdrive Service Coming Soon
We’re excited to announce that CEFLS will soon join over 11,000 U.S. libraries and library systems in offering eBooks available to download free from the library’s website.
Library card holders from any library in the System will be able to check out and download bestselling and classic ebooks anytime, anywhere by visiting our website.
We are hoping to offer this service beginning in March, and will start with a small collection of several hundred eBooks.
Users will be able to browse the library’s website, check out with a valid library card, and download to PC, Apple Mac, iPad or iPhone, and many mobile devices, including Amazon’s Kindle.
The number of Americans using an e-book reader has almost doubled during the last 12 months, according to a Harris Poll of 2,183 adults surveyed online in July 2011. The Harris Poll also revealed that one in six Americans who did not have an e-reader intended to buy one during the next six months.
