Your favourite books/author

[arewethereyet]

Our library did offer Overdrive but the new format is called Libby.  I do find that it's a bit limited as far as selection goes.  Since I am just outside a large metro area I should check into what I need to do to get cards from libraries in surrounding 'burbs.  I listened to it a lot a couple years ago but have been frustrated when I find an author or book I like and other books by the same author aren't available.  It seems really hit or miss regardless of how popular a book has been.

Libby is part of overdrive, and they're really pushing it, but has not replaced it. Since I use Overdrive for Windows for audio books and Adobe Digital editions for ebooks, I can push them to my portables without Libby.

Yes, it can be frustrating to find a new author and find the local library has only half of their books, or worse, a new seven book series of which they have books 1, 3, 4, 5, and 7. That's not just a digital library issue though.

I did some checking with a close suburb of decent size and due to COVID they aren't allowing people who don't have an address in their town to get a library card.  I would assume digital libraries are doing a bang up business.
