With the coming about of eBooks, what happens to the libraries!This application from OverDrive is an example of things to come. With the dematerialization of content (everything is just electronic bits and bytes) one would think the library, as we know it, may cease to exist. instead the libraries are evolving too and they now lend out a lot of electronic books and other contents. This app from OverDrive finds you the library, in your neighborhood that has the content and lets you get connected. The library would lend out the material and use it the way you want to.
The application allows users on multiple platforms to download its OverDrive Media Console app to read eBooks too after the content has been downloaded. The OverDrive Media Console is available for iOS and Android. You thus have them on iPads as well as Android based tablets. Phones like iPhone as well as other Android phones can be used too. The same app can be used to search for specific books or media in electronic format. The Console app is available for free from iTunes App Store and the Android Market.
