If I did not rely on this particular tech tool, well, I'd be bankrupt. Overdrive is an amazing resource that allows you to check out books from school and public libraries all for free! The only thing that you have to do is download the Overdrive app (also free!) or visit the Overdrive website.
Once signed it, you will have the option to search for the libraries that you want to connect with through Overdrive. You will want to add The Davis Academy and you will want to also add your public library. This will give you access to free books from two separate libraries throughout the summer and beyond.
Once you have your libraries set for your account, you can search for the books that you are interested in checking out. If they are available to check out, they will have a little image of a book cover that is in black:
If the book is checked out, it will have an image of a book cover that is grayed out but you can place it on hold and you will receive an email notification when it is available for you to check out and read.
The best thing about the ability to check out free ebooks over the summer, is that you can do so from anywhere! In addition to checking them out through the Overdrive website, please don't forget that you can also download the Overdrive app. Happy reading!
