Go to:
http://search.overdrive.com/
Click on
Advanced Search
Then use the pull-down menus for Publisher, Imprint, and Media Format.
I can't find anything for Hachette per se. I did find a boatload of Kindle format books when I selected
Grand Central Publishing (part of Hachette) from the Publisher pull-down. For whatever reason, however, I only get 66 Kindle titles when I select Grand Central Publishing from the Imprint pull-down.
Between where I live and where I work, and where members of my immediate family work and go to school, I am finding a much better selection of books published in the last twenty years or so via Overdrive for Kindle than in paper at my local public library. It's going to take more than Overdrive losing one or two publishers to change this. Except, if Random House pulled out, that would be a big loss, leading to me borrowing more paper books and fewer eBooks.
I guess I'm taking a risk that someone may say that if I don't work there personally, I shouldn't read the library book. C'est la vie sur internet.
