Overdrive App makes library books easier
this is probably very old news, but I never knew about it.
for all those rooted Nook color's out there , library book lending is now easier. there's android app for Overdrive. still have to get a physical Library card, ohhh the humanity but whenever you don't have to sideload it's always a plus. Would it be too much wishful thinking that the Overdrive App would be available in the upcoming Nook Market for all us unrooted nook colors? probably not likely http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-...carouselMain.0 Last edited by boswd; 04-01-2011 at 10:26 AM. |

This app is the main reason I rooted my Nook Color.

Yep, just root it. You'll be happy you did! Note on Overdrive -- I found that I had to download books in the default browser. I had been using Dolphin and it downloaded them in a form that Overdrive didn't recognize.

Seeing this thread made me download overdrive for my brand new nook color but when I press Library to choose my local library it stays on the 'Welcome to OverDrive Media Console' audio book page with the bottom 80% of the screen blank. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
