Description

Press release from Ramsey County: January 25, 2021 The Ramsey County Library downloadable collection will transition to Libby by OverDrive over the next two months. During the transition, cloudLibrary services will start to diminish and eventually end. Current holds will not be saved or transferred. With the acquisition of RBDigital by OverDrive, the Library took this opportunity to change to this one-stop shop for e-books, e-audiobooks and e-magazines. OverDrive will provide users with the following benefits: Shared collection: Discover, request and borrow e-books and e-audiobooks from other Twin Cities metro libraries accessible to all in a shared collection. You'll have access to more content than ever before. All-in-one app: Instead of needing to check multiple apps, find all the e-books and e-audiobooks RCL owns in one app. Kindle compatibility: Many Kindle users have been frustrated by their inability to borrow e-books from RCL in the past. With OverDrive, Kindle users can join everyone else in borrowing e-books from RCL. This press release was produced by Ramsey County. The views expressed are the author's own.
