    Open eBooks Now Available in Overdrive!


    SJPL is now offering Open eBooks via Overdrive Digital Library. Open eBooks can be downloaded and accessed on virtually any devices, including Desktop, Laptop, (Windows or Mac); Android, Blackberry, iPhone or Windows Phone 7; Barnes and Noble Nooks, Sony Readers and so on; but not yet on Amazon Kindle.

     

    On Overdrive, Open eBooks will not be listed in a separate category but are mixed in with regular eBook titles. If you know an Open eBook title, you can search by title in the "Quick Search" bar on Overdrive. However, if you wish to search for all Open eBooks, click on the “Advanced Search” link under the regular Search button on the upper left-hand side of the first Overdrive page.  Then, without entering any other information, under “Format” use the drop-down menu to select “Open EPUB eBook” and click the Search button. A list of Open eBooks should appear.  Checking out Open eBooks with your library card is the same as for other eBooks but the Download button has been re-named “Right Click and Save, ” It is the only button option, so click on that to check out your Open eBook!
