Checking Out a Book
  • go to your library's OverDrive page and login
  • search for the book you want
  • select Kindle Book
  • click Add to Cart
  • click Proceed to Checkout
  • select lending period (7-14-21 days)
  • click Confirm Check Out
  • click Get for Kindle
  • that launches an Amazon page - Your Public Library Loan
  • select Deliver to option
  • click Get library book
The book is then sent to your Kindle or Kindle app and downloads the next time you connect it to wifi.


Returning a Book
  • login to your Amazon account
  • go to Your Account
  • scroll down to Digital Content
  • click Manage Your Kindle
  • Your Kindle Library pops up
  • checked out books have a bold, orange public library after the title
  • find the book you want and click on the Actions box to the far right
  • select Return this book
  • Are you sure you want to return this Library Loan Ebook? Yes--No
So checking out a book works very similarly to the way I had guessed before.
