After a library book is downloaded, the tagging should be changed from history, fiction, etc. to "audiobook" (or podcast for those). In Windows OS, library books are stored under "documents" --> My Media and then either mp3 or WMA. Alternatively, the tagging can be changed on the Windows Media Player copy before transferring the book that way.
Overdrive and Windows Media Player will place books in the "music" folder of your Sansa. Overdrive has its own manager that you'll need to install first (using Internet Explorer as a browser - it will not set up correctly otherwise, you can use any browser after that for actual books). It doesn't matter where the books go on the device, as they'll all display in one long "audiobook" list under Music.

Audible books "self bookmark" without doing anything to them. Their manager can be a bit wonky - when the book downloads you actually get two copies, as the system loads one at the Audible manager, and a second at Windows Media Player also.
