I have an ipod touch 4g (and a 3g, but not the point). Is there any way at all to download overdrive (yes, from the library) ebooks on the ipod touch 4g at this point. I know, I know, they are supposed to come out with an app but have not as of yet. I know others have managed to find a way to do it now. Can anyone help?

P.S.- I am still a novice, so step by step instructions would not be underappreciated, if you have them!

You have no idea how appreciative I will be for any info...I have been searching for soooo long! If you would rather contact me off-list (post too long?, whatever), just let me know here :-)

Thanks in advance

Yes you can get library ebooks on your iTouch or iPhone. It is not a direct application however. You will need to download the ebook first to your computer, remove the drm and then put the ebook into Calibre. Once you have done that, Calibre will work with iTunes and iBook sothat you can put the book on your iTouch or iPhone and read it. An alternative is to install the Stanza ebook app on your iTouch or iPhone and set it up to access your Calibre library directly.

Both options work well, but take a bit of work to set up.

cheers
