This is probably (almost certainly) a dumb question, but is there any way to sync one's Kobo library to Overdrive without having one of the newer readers on which it is enabled? I just have a Glo HD and would love to have my Overdrive books sync to it even if I couldn't use it to browse for library books and check them out.

I saw some older threads (from 2016) that seemed to think adding the capability to older Kobo models was just a matter of time, but I don't think it's happened yet? Or is this another one of those features like "Never Turn Off" that I've completely missed?
