For those who receive an eBook reader or tablet as a gift on Christmas Day, they can begin to download free eBooks right away!
Just remember to link directly to your library's OverDrive collection (audiobooks, eBooks, music, videos & magazines), electronic resources / research tools / databases, catalog, and website in your post!
You can download free images (including the one at right) from OverDrive's Partner Portal of promotional resources and marketing materials. Here are direct links to ones you might find most useful:
