Step 2: Download, Install and Register free OverDrive Media Console software
Click the icon below for download and installation instructions:
OverDrive Media Console utilizes Windows Media PlayerŽ 9 Series or newer to play files. The first time that Windows Media Player attempts to open a DRM-protected file, it will alert you that a Security Update must be
performed before the file may be opened. The update takes just a few moments, and must be performed before Microsoft Windows Media Player will allow any DRM-protected files to be played.

Step 3: Check Out, Download, and Enjoy
You can browse or search this site for downloadable titles. When you locate a title of interest, simply add it to your cart and check out the title. If a desired title is not available, you may place a hold on it. Click here for more information on checking out and placing holds.
Once you have checked out a title, a download page will be displayed. Click the 'Download' button to start the download. Once the download is complete, you can close your Internet connection and enjoy the title offline.
You will never accrue late fees with titles you download from this website. At the end of the loan period, titles will expire and be automatically 'returned' to the library.
