I think most people look for books by genre, author, title, or perhaps when browsing...cover. I very much doubt many people look for a particular publisher. They may look at a book, think about it, then seeing the publisher either go for it or not depending on their perception of the publisher in question. Or it may not have any bearing at all. Being that people are likely borrowing rather than buying from overdrive, if the book looks good I think they will "take a chance" on it more often than not.
