Overdrive

Syma Zerkow sent this out:
The Overdrive Digital Bookmobile will be in Houston January 28 to promote our collection of downloadable media from Overdrive: http://www.digitalbookmobile.com/. I expect this will result in quite a lot of interest from our customers regarding this material. And we have purchased additional titles in anticipation of increased demand. Please take some time in the next few weeks to familiarize yourself with this material so that you can provide our customers with the best service possible. The link to our collection is found at http://www.houstonlibrary.org/downloadable-media.

This month the Central Library's Remote Reference meetings will focus on e-books and e-readers. Even if you do not work at Central, you are welcome to attend these meetings. Below is the information from Julia de Berardinis:
