OverDrive is Live

I know you’re asking, “What exactly is OverDrive?” Well, I’m glad you asked. OverDrive is an extension of each of our school’s libraries, only it is online with 24/7 access to eBooks and audiobooks! It’s convenient for students or staff to check out titles at home, on the weekends or during school breaks with no worry about misplacing a book or running up late fees – these digital titles automatically return at the end of the lending period!

To use OverDrive, students browse our secure custom website, borrow a book, and enjoy anytime, anywhere on a computer, tablet, smartphone or eReader. You can access it in Destiny on the home page or right here:  http://bendschools.lib.overdrive.com/

One of the great features is that elementary students have access to only elementary content, while middle school students have access to both middle school and elementary content, and high school students have access to K-12 content.

You can even read offline. Here’s how:

Enjoy!
