You need to start with ... what format your local library books (e-books, kindle, kobo, pdf files?) and all that information.

 

We don't know what your local library provides, right? :smileywink:

Repeat, do you know what ebook types your library provides?  I sure don't.

Does your library use Overdrive? As other posters have asked, that is the first thing you need to know. Check out your library's website or call the reference desk and ask.

If it does, then here is the app:

And here are the basic Overdrive instructions:
