I worked in public libraries for 17 years. In that time, I answered questions at the reference desk, offered technology training, led book clubs, planned large events, and helped buy for my library’s digital collection. And sometimes I did all these things at once. Actually, a lot of the time I was doing all these things at once.

Even if your job is to focus on collection development and digital materials, it can still get overwhelming from time to time if you’re lucky enough to get extra funds or go on vacation. But whichever of these scenarios best describes you, OverDrive is here to help!

Did you know that all libraries in North America have their own dedicated Digital Content Librarian (DCL) at OverDrive? And did you know that this team works together to make shopping and curating your collection easier, quicker, and better? Well, it’s true! OverDrive’s team of DCLs are happy to help libraries of all sizes and needs in a number of ways.

In fact, there’s so much the DCL team can do for you, we’re having a webinar, Save Time (and Sanity) with Your Digital Content Librarian, on Thursday, February 22 at 2:00 PM ET to go over the ways we help public libraries with their OverDrive accounts. And because we know you are all busy, the webinar is just 30 minutes.  Register today!

Can’t make it live? Register anyway and we will send you the recording to  watch when it’s most convenient for you. This session will be the perfect opportunity to find out what the OverDrive Digital Content Librarians can do for you at no extra cost.

We look forward to seeing you there! (Or later, on-demand on video. Seriously, we really are all about making your OverDrive experience as simple as possible!)
