Library adds free ebook & audiobook collection

From WOOD COUNTY DISTRICT PUBLIC LIBRARY

Wood County District Public Library cardholders can now access a wide selection of popular digital ebooks and audiobooks free from a new WCDPL Overdrive Collection. “This new WCDPL Overdrive Collection was added to meet the local digital demands of our WCDPL patrons,” says Director Michael Penrod.

With a WCDPL library card, members of the community can now borrow from both the Ohio Digital Library and the new WCDPL Overdrive collection by visiting wcdpl.overdrive.com or downloading Libby, the award-winning one-tap reading app from OverDrive.

Named a PCMag Best Free Software of 2019 and one of Popular Mechanics’ 20 Best Apps of the 2010s, Libby seamlessly connects first-time users and experienced readers with the new WCDPL Overdrive Collection. This collection was tailored for WCDPL patrons and offers ebooks and audiobooks, including bestsellers and new releases in a variety of topics. Readers of all ages can select from every subject ranging from mystery, romance, children’s, business and more.
