It’s bad news but everyone with Advantage accounts should consider placing orders for Hachette titles prior to the price increase. Here’s the announcement from OverDrive:
Dear Library Partner,
Hachette will be raising its eBook prices on October 1, 2012 on their currently available eBook catalog (~3,500 eBook titles with release dates of April 2010 and earlier). On average prices will increase 220%.

In summer 2011, WPLC submitted a “wishlist” of features to OverDrive for future development. Many of the requests have been addressed through the website redesign and OverDrive updates, or are likely to be resolved with the upcoming new Content Reserve and next generation service, expected before the end of 2012.
Meanwhile, WPLC is preparing a new wishlist for OverDrive, and would like your assistance in prioritizing the remaining features from the previous wishlist and identifying additional features that you think would be helpful for patrons and staff.
