The e-book reader from Adobe has been an interesting task. First let me say that making this our first task is very important.Most everyone that I've spoken with (myself included) has had questions about the Overdrive library.
That said...I dove in head first to tackle this downloading of e*books and ran into some hang ups. It seemed that every title I was interested in did not give me the "put in my book bag" option. Certain that my ignorance had soared to new heights I summoned the courage to ask why I couldn't download anything. My personal answer oracle (Sheila) clued me into the fact that we only secure the rights to so many copies of a given title. Ah HA! so I searched around until I finally found one that had availability.
My book downloaded super fast and I found the Adobe Digital Reader very easy to use.
You may think that this story has a happy ending - but it does not. When I went back to the computer that I originally downloaded both the reader and the e*book to - it said that my title had expired. I had only just downloaded this book today (the same day that it expired). Yeeaaah, so I'm a little confused. I'm sure it's something really obvious; but let me know. And even though I'm confused around seemingly every corner - I am learning.
