It looks like they use BiblioCommons, just like The Other BPL (Brooklyn) -- that is why they have OverDrive integration. So, sure, if every library on the planet wants to pay good money just to switch from Polaris and other systems to BiblioCommons just for OverDrive integration, they will be more than happy to do so... once you agree to donate the costs.
