Nebraska OverDrive for E-Books and Audio Books
Now that Christmas is over, many people have one of the new e-book readers. The first question that many people have is “Where can I download books?” Nebraska OverDrive is a website where library patrons can borrow e-books and audio books for free. This is a wonderful service. However, for the Sargent Library to become a member of Nebraska OverDrive, it would cost us $1000 the first year and $500 each year after that. For a small library, this is expensive. Before we consider subscribing to such a service, we need to know how many patrons would be interested.
Please contact the library and “vote” if you would be interested in the Nebraska OverDrive service. Also let us know if you would be willing to pay $15 per year to help cover the costs. Phone 308-527-4241 or email sargentlibrary@gmail.com
