Overdrive Ebooks
I wanted to share an exciting resource with our school library. Our district has an eBook collection using the OverDrive database. OverDrive is our online platform for eBooks and audiobooks offering popular new titles, downloadable to Chromebook, Kindle, iPad, and other readers and devices.
Once logged in, students can start reading at school and continue where they left off on their device at home. Older children are able to borrow chapter books and high-interest nonfiction. Parents and teachers can also log in to allow younger children to view and listen to read-alouds.
Below is how to access the site. You may go directly to: http://flboe.lib.overdrive.com/ and follow these directions:
Once at the Fort Lee OverDrive site, please click “Sign In”
You will be able to sign-in with your child's Google account sign-in.
Once logged in, your child may browse and borrow up to three books. I ask that students only borrow one book at a time as these titles are shared by students in all four elementary schools.

If a book is already borrowed by another student, your child can “Place a Hold” and it will appear in their checkout account once it is available.
Go to “Account” to read books. Please choose the “Read in Browser” option and enjoy!
