OverDrive to preview enhanced eBooks at ALA Midwinter Meeting

As thousands of librarians convene in Philadelphia this weekend, we will be demonstrating interactive children's eBooks with dozens of "app-like" features based on industry-standard EPUB3 and other formats. In OverDrive booth #1723 at the ALA Midwinter Meeting, January 24-27 in Philadelphia, enhanced eBook editions of children's classics, picture books, adult and YA titles will be demonstrated using OverDrive Read without the need to first install an app or activate any new software.

New enhanced eBook features that we’ll be previewing include synchronized audiobooks and text, interactive pages, fixed layout titles and multimedia best practices. See how reader engagement can increase through cutting-edge technology such as integrated tests and quizzes with real-time grading, true-to-print page layouts, and much morel.

Also on display will be our recently launched features including the kids’ eReading Room, multilingual user interfaces, multilingual eBooks, OverDrive Media Station and OverDrive Streaming Video. Stop by booth #1723 to see it all in action!
