Which Kobo would you recommend if you want to read books from the library?
I have a Kobo Vox now and I had to reset it to factory settings and now I cannot get the overdrive app on it because it is to old now. |

Depends if you want to borrow directly from the device, or from a PC / Mac and transfer the books.
Direct borrowing is only supported on the Kobo Aura One, and only in certain countries. ADE to device is supported on all Kobo eReaders |

As Peter said, the Kobo Aura 1 will make for the most seamless borrowing experience. You can borrow directly on the device and download the book to the device over your wifi. With the other Kobo devices you can borrow books from an Overdrive supporting library and use Adobe Digital Editions to download the book to your computer, but then you have to connect your device to your computer via USB to get the book on to the device.

Thanks for your answers, I guess Aura 1 is more for my needs. I would use the app on the vox and download with wifi, that’s what I’m looking for
