Library On The Go (OverDrive) media downloads
Lincoln Library has access to eBook, eAudiobook, music, and video downloads from Library On The Go (OverDrive). Only direct cardholders of participating libraries may use this service. Note that new library cardholders might need to wait a couple of weeks for the library card to be added to the OverDrive database. Also, be sure your library card doesn't expire or it will no longer work in Library On the Go after a few weeks.

Changes coming in early April:
- One-Step Checkout™: Once you’ve logged in with your library card number, it just takes one click to borrow a title.
- Some titles will only be visible to Lincoln Library cardholders who are logged in.
- OverDrive Read™: Browser-based technology enables instant access to eBooks, online or offline, with no software or downloading required. All you’ll need is a computer or device with a modern web browser. If the title is available to borrow, you can download the title–as you’ve always been able to–or you can choose to start reading right away in your web browser. If you choose browser-based reading, your progression will sync across devices. For example, if you leave off at page 47 on your computer, you’ll start at page 47 on your iPad®!
- A new responsive design optimizes the website for mobile and desktop use. So regardless of what device you use, the experience will be the same.
- Powerful discovery tools enable you to find your next book fast with filtered search, personalized title recommendations and more. It’s just like online shopping!
- Checkout and hold limits will be 5 instead of 3.
