To add audio content, you drag and drop the files into the MUSIC folder on your 505 (or storage card). You can add library books in mp3 format only (no mp4, no WMA, no Audible), including OverDrive and Net Library ones (again, I stress, in mp3 format). You might think about getting a 1 - 2 Mb SD card as a book takes up a fair amount of room.

I did not own my 505 very long, so perhaps Bookworm Girl - who has had far more experience than I with that device - will be able to explain in more detail.

P S: Over Drive books can be transferred via the Over Drive Manager, not dragged-and-dropped.
