OverDrive WIN Will Turn Libraries into eBookstores

Have you ever been on a long waiting list for an eBook and then decided to buy the eBook instead? OverDrive plans to launch a new program to make that easier.

OverDrive is in Frankfurt this week for the Frankfurt Book Fair. That’s where they’ll be meeting with independent publishers and booksellers to share details about its new WIN Catalog. Win stands for Want It Now, and it’s part of OverDrive’s new push to expand the options open to libraries.

OverDrive WIN will enable OverDrive’s 15,000 partner libraries to help library patrons find the eBooks they might want to buy and then direct the patron to one of the eBookstores that stock the title.
