2

Go to the App Store and download the app for the OverDrive Media Console.

Next you will be prompted to sign in with your Adobe ID. If you don’t have one, you’ll need to register at Adobe.com (it’s free and takes just a few minutes).

4

Select “Get Books” then “Add a Library.”

5

Search for the Cortland Free Library by name or zip code (13045).

6

Now select “Finger Lakes Library System.”

7

Now you’re ready to search for a title to download. Notice that you have the option to “Search” or to “Browse.”

8

If the title is available, you will have the option to “Add it to Your Download Cart.” Now you may “Proceed to Checkout.” (If you’re asked to “Place a Hold

Request,” that means the file is signed out by another patron. If you choose to place a hold request, you’ll be notified via email when the title becomes

available.)

You will need to login to your patron account to confirm the check out.

To Return an eBook Before Its Due Date

At this time, patrons can only have 3 eBook titles signed out at once—thus, you may want to return a title before its due date so you take out another. To return

a title, swipe your finger across the “book jacket” in the direction of the red arrow above. Then select “Return then Delete.”
