OverDrive is offering a new service for public library partners to give young readers a place of their own. Now there’s an option to incorporate an eReading Room for kids and/or teens as an extension of your digital library website. Kids and teens can browse, sample, place holds and borrow eBooks and other media appropriate for their age range and reading level. Kids can spend as much time as they want clicking away and exploring without the worry of them stumbling upon mature content.

Promote eBooks in your library
OverDrive Media Station (OMS), an in-library discovery kiosk for browsing and sampling eBooks, audiobooks, music and video, is now available for OverDrive public library partners. Launched in a pilot program earlier this year, OMS is live in 50 libraries in five countries. The touchscreens offer a new and exciting way to introduce your eBook collection and turn library visitors into digital library users.
