The Kobo Aura ONE has integrated borrowing from libraries that use Overdrive. This is done through the store on the device. The function is not available in all countries. USA, Canada, Australia, UK plus some others.

All Kobo ereaders allow sideloading from ADE. You can download the books from OD using ADE and then add them to the device.

What dictionary does it has?
For English, Kobo uses a Merriam-Webster dictionary. I believe it is one of the smaller versions they have. I don't have any real problems with it. You can sideload them with some hacks, but if dictionaries are a very important thing, Kobo is not the choice for you.

Possible to side load fonts?
Yes. It is simple. There is a thread in the Kobo forum to discuss it.
