Libraries and schools will soon benefit from improved access to digital books. With OverDrive’s new All Access Collections, millions of readers can enjoy premium digital library books with no holds or wait times. This initiative aims to satisfy the growing demand for eBooks, offering cost-effective solutions for seamless library lending.
New All Access Collections Address Reader Demand
This summer, OverDrive will launch new subscriptions based on popular genres. The initial offerings include the All Access Romance and All Access Mystery collections. Designed to meet the increasing demand for digital books, these subscriptions aim to reduce wait times significantly. Patrons will have access to a large catalog of in-demand titles through the Libby and Sora apps.
Simultaneous Use eBook Packages for Libraries
Libraries can now opt for simultaneous use eBook packages, which come with a fixed annual fee. Titles in each collection are selected based on extensive data, including title circulation and reader engagement. These collections will regularly update with new titles, ensuring that readers always find something new and exciting. Moreover, the All Access Kids Building Block Library will bundle five new subcollections to focus on diverse reading needs for children.
OverDrive’s Commitment to Digital Accessibility
OverDrive’s All Access Collections extend their successful on-demand models like Kanopy PLUS Packs and OverDrive Max. “Simultaneous use packages have been a fantastic addition,” says Anne Kennedy, a Library Consultant from Ohio. This strategy has increased checkouts and patron satisfaction, proving a hit among library-goers. OverDrive remains dedicated to advocating for flexible and reasonable digital book costs, empowering libraries to enhance their digital offerings.
OverDrive continues to innovate and support libraries with tools that make eBook access more equitable and efficient. With the launch of these new collections, libraries can better manage their digital budgets while keeping patrons engaged and satisfied.
