The OverDrive Digital Bookmobile National Tour stopped by the Carson City Library Thursday to provide free eBook/audiobook download services.
Readers of all ages were provided the opportunity to learn how to download eBooks and audiobooks from the Carson City Library through interactive demonstrations and high-definition instructional videos. A “gadget gallery” featured Kindle, iPod touch, Android tablet, NOOK, Sony Reader, Blackberry, Windows Phone, and others to help visitors discover portable devices that are compatible with the library’s download service.
