Aura H2O and library ebooks
Can someone tell me if this is correct?
Quote:
I was extremely surprised to discover that Kobo’s new H20 eReader will not work with library eBooks. I’m a librarian an I discovered after hearing about a library patron that could not transfer an eBook to their reader successfully. It saddens me to think we have one less option and one more walled garden in the ecosystem of eReaders.

I'm happily reading a library book now (from Overdrive / ADE) on my H2O just like I did on all my previous Kobo readers.

The only thing you need to do is to ensure that the Kobo reader had been authorized with your Adobe ID by ADE, and then there are no issues transferring the book to it via ADE.

See this guide from the Toronto Public Library
Kobo Aura, Kobo Glo, Kobo Mini or Kobo Touch for eBooks

I thought it might be a set up issue.

Thanks, everyone!

I've read several library books on my Aura H2O. I did my usual transfer of the activation.xml to activate without having to bother Adobe and then ADE allowed me to transfer borrowed library books and read them for the 7 days I borrowed them for.

I am also a big fan of copying over the activation ☺
