Overdrive Media Console

With all of the changes we've seen in publishing thanks to ebooks, one has to wonder how libraries are affected. We already showed you San Antonio's bookless library, but what about current brick and mortar libraries? Are they getting in the digital game?

Absolutely. Meet the Overdrive Media Console, a free app that you can download to any of your devices. If you have a library membership you can use this app to connect to your library and rent ebooks and audiobooks, which you can access on any of your devices.

They're temporary ebooks that will disappear from your device after two weeks; you will need to check them out again if you're not finished at the end of the two week period, but the app will remember your place. The best part is that just like the library, it's all free.
