Help Us Set a New OverDrive Circulation Record in 2017!
GOAL = 43,566 OverDrive Checkouts by Decemebr 31
Throughout the rest of this year, the library is participating in OverDrive's Digital Dash Challenge Contest. If we reach 43,566 digital OverDrive checkouts by December 31 (which would set a new annual record for MRSPL OverDrive checkouts), we'll be eligible to win additional funds to buy more ebooks and audiobooks for our collection. As of November 1, we've reached 81% of our goal! Our OverDrive ebooks and audiobooks are free and can be easily accessed using most computers, tablets, smartphones, and ereaders. Learn more about the collection at mrspl.overdrive.com.
