RB Digital and Overdrive?

With OverDrive’s recent acquisition of RBdigital, Culpeper County Library's will be transferring all ebooks and eaudiobooks from RBdigital to a new OverDrive platform. 

We encourage all patrons who haven't already done so to visit our Overdrive digital library at http://brdc.overdrive.com and download the free Libby app to become familiar with how it works and browse our digital catalog. 

Our transfer is scheduled (as of now) for Oct. 6th and access to ebooks and eaudiobooks will be disconnected on the RBD app around 8 am on that day. A message will be posted on the app by RB Digital a week before the transfer to let you know. Information will also be posted on the website soon. As of right now, all streaming content and magazines will remain on the RBD app, including Acorn, IndieFlix, Great Courses, and Quello so make sure you don’t remove RB Digitial from your devices just ye. Accessing streaming and magazines on the app WILL NOT be disrupted during the transfer. 

If you currently have a book checked out in the RBdigital app, it will be available through the remainder of the lending period, so you can finish reading without disruption or risk of losing your place in the book. Holds will not be moved, but you may export your Transaction History from the RBdigital website by accessing My Account > Profiles. You can place holds on those titles again in Libby.

If you have any questions, please feel free to give us a call at Culpeper County Library and speak to a member of our staff by calling 540-825-8691.
