Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, July 19, 2017 - FIVE OTLD looking for ‘library champions’ Oregon Trail Library District is looking for a few great champions. OTLD of- fers several online services for patrons, and the district is looking for people to help spread the word by promot- ing the programs they offer at community events. For instance, meet Libby, the innovative new reading app for eBooks and audiobooks introduced worldwide on June 20. Based on the experience of 36,000 library partners and one billion digital books borrowed, OverDrive de- signed Libby to get library users reading quickly, any- time and anywhere, in just one tap. “Libby is a fun new app for OverDrive,” said OTLD Library Director Kathy Street. “We are happy to be able to point our patrons to an app that’s easy to use and thoughtfully designed.

It is an easy app to learn for all ages.” For 15 years, Over- Drive has collaborated with the nation’s public libraries to pioneer and innovate how readers of all ages can ben- efit from instant access to reading from their local li- braries.
