Finally Reading an eBook!
Yay! I finally figured out how to read Library eBooks on my iPad. Ive been reading a lot lately and some people have asked me if I'm considering getting a Kindle or Nook or something like that. But I get nearly all of my books from the library for free. And as convenient as an eBook reader would be, I just can't justify spending all that money for a device, and then even more money for books. Right now my monthly book budget is right around $0. It's hard to improve on that. But one thing I have been waiting for, knowing that it eventually has to happen, is a way to borrow library books on my iPad. I mean you can borrow eBooks on your computer, but I'm not about to sit at my desk and read a whole book. How much harder could it be to get the book on my iPad? Apparently it's not as simple as I think it should be, but it is finally possible. Unfortunately I only have like 300 books to choose from (stupid DRM), but I'll take what I can get for now, because I figure things are moving in the right direction.
Oh, if anyone in Loudoun County is interested, here's a link to instructions. There are a few steps to het everything into place, and the Overdrive App is a little quirky, it may take a couple days for your books to show up, but it might be worth trying.
