There is currently nothing available of the new system yet. We are still at the
waiting stage. According to and interview with Alison Long on TechTalk a couple
of weeks ago, we should be seeing something by the end of this month or the
beginning of next.

not sure what version of overdrive you are using then, as have found it very
easy to use this end.
I will say the sound could be better, but that is down to RNIB compressing
the files too much, not overdrive itself.

Overdrive is so fiddly and I never use it since the introduction of
Easyreader. One of the comments I heard was that it is even envisaged that
people might be able to read their RNIB Talking Books via their smart
speakers. For people who aren’t very tech savvy, this would be a great way
for them to access their books.

We are supposed to be seeing a new online library delivery system within the
next few weeks. I can't say I will mourn the end of Overdrive.

Hi all,
I am just wondering if RNIB is still adding new books on the Overdrive? I can
only find few books added on the site recently.
Can anyone recommend me some other alternative libraries that I can get audio
books?
Thank you
Ali
