I love using Overdrive to borrow Kindle books, and over time, I’ve learned which publishers are most reliable for this. Penguin Random House is a standout, with a massive selection of genres. HarperCollins is another favorite, especially for their YA and fantasy titles. Hachette Book Group’s participation means you can access bestsellers like 'The Thursday Murder Club' easily.

Smaller publishers like Sourcebooks and Kensington are great for romance and mystery lovers. I’ve found some delightful reads from them. Macmillan’s involvement, particularly through Tor Books, adds depth to the sci-fi and fantasy offerings.

It’s worth noting that not all titles from these publishers are available, but the variety is impressive. Overdrive’s integration with Kindle makes borrowing seamless, and I’ve saved so much money by exploring these publishers’ catalogs.

HarperCollins, and Hachette Book Group. These publishers offer a wide range of titles, from bestsellers to indie gems. I also noticed that Macmillan has started supporting Overdrive, though their selection is a bit more limited. Smaller publishers like Sourcebooks and Kensington Publishing also participate, which is great for discovering unique reads.

If you're into romance, Harlequin has a fantastic collection available through Overdrive. For sci-fi and fantasy fans, Tor Books (under Macmillan) has some great options too. The convenience of borrowing Kindle books from libraries via Overdrive has been a game-changer for me, especially with these publishers onboard.

I can share a detailed list of publishers that support this feature. The major players include Penguin Random House, which offers everything from literary fiction to thrillers. HarperCollins is another big one, with a robust catalog spanning genres like historical fiction, mystery, and YA. Hachette Book Group is also fully onboard, providing access to popular series and standalone novels.

Mid-sized publishers like Simon & Schuster and Macmillan have joined too, though their participation varies. Simon & Schuster has a solid selection of contemporary fiction, while Macmillan’s sci-fi and fantasy titles (through Tor Books) are a highlight. Smaller but noteworthy publishers include Sourcebooks, known for romance and historical fiction, and Kensington Publishing, which offers cozy mysteries and women’s fiction.

For niche genres, publishers like Harlequin (romance) and Baen Books (sci-fi) are worth checking out. Overdrive’s partnership with these publishers makes it easy to borrow Kindle books without leaving home. I’ve discovered so many hidden gems thanks to their extensive catalogs.

Does Kindle Overdrive Work With All Kindle Models?

3 Answers2025-07-07 22:16:14
I've been using Kindle devices for years, and Overdrive compatibility depends on the model. Most newer Kindle models, like the Kindle Paperwhite, Kindle Oasis, and the basic Kindle, support Overdrive as long as they have Wi-Fi. You can borrow ebooks from your local library directly through the Kindle Store or Libby app and send them to your device. Older models, like the Kindle Keyboard or Kindle 4, don’t support Overdrive due to outdated software. If you’re unsure, check Amazon’s official support page or your library’s website for a list of compatible devices. It’s a game-changer for book lovers who want free access to tons of titles.

What Are The Best OverDrive On Kindle Alternatives?

3 Answers2025-08-09 08:16:58
but lately I've been exploring other options because I want more flexibility. OverDrive is great for library books, but sometimes the selection feels limited. I switched to 'Libby', which is basically OverDrive's newer app, and it's way more user-friendly. The interface is cleaner, and I can borrow audiobooks and ebooks from my local library without any hassle. Another alternative I love is 'Hoopla'. It doesn't require waiting for holds, and the selection includes comics, movies, and music alongside books. If you're into indie titles, 'Scribd' is a solid choice—it’s like Netflix for books with a huge catalog. For those who don’t mind subscriptions, 'Kindle Unlimited' is decent, but 'Kobo Plus' has a better selection outside mainstream bestsellers. Each has its perks, so it depends on what you’re looking for.

What Are The Loan Limits For OverDrive On Kindle?

3 Answers2025-07-08 07:07:37
I’ve been using OverDrive with my Kindle for years, and the loan limits can vary depending on your library’s policies. Most libraries allow you to borrow up to 10 titles at a time, but some might have lower limits like 5 or higher ones like 15. The loan period typically ranges from 7 to 21 days, and you can often renew if no one else is waiting. OverDrive also lets you place holds on popular titles, but the number of holds might be capped too. It’s best to check your local library’s OverDrive site for specifics since they set the rules. I’ve noticed smaller libraries tend to have stricter limits, while bigger systems offer more flexibility. If you’re a heavy reader like me, it’s worth exploring multiple library cards to maximize your borrowing power.

Which Kindle Models Are Compatible With Overdrive?

4 Answers2025-08-10 14:56:41
As someone who spends a lot of time reading on my Kindle and borrowing ebooks from my local library via Overdrive, I’ve found that compatibility can be a bit tricky. The Kindle models that work with Overdrive include the Kindle (8th generation and later), Kindle Paperwhite (7th generation and later), Kindle Oasis (all models), and Kindle Voyage. These devices support the 'Send to Kindle' feature, which lets you borrow books directly from Overdrive and send them wirelessly to your Kindle. However, older models like the Kindle Keyboard or Kindle 4 don’t support this feature, so you’d have to sideload books manually using Adobe Digital Editions. The Kindle Fire tablets are a different story—they don’t use the same Kindle e-ink system, so you’d need to use the Libby app instead of Overdrive’s direct-to-Kindle feature. If you’re unsure, checking your device’s settings or Overdrive’s help page can clarify things. I love how seamless the process is with newer models—it makes library borrowing a breeze!

Are Overdrive Kindle Books Compatible With All Kindle Models?

I’ve been using Kindle for years, and from my experience, OverDrive Kindle books are compatible with most Kindle models, but not all. The basic rule is that if your Kindle supports downloading books via Wi-Fi, it should work with OverDrive. My old Kindle Paperwhite (7th gen) handles OverDrive books just fine, but I’ve heard some older models like the Kindle Keyboard (3rd gen) struggle with the newer formats. The key is to check if your device can sync with your library’s OverDrive system. If you’re unsure, Amazon’s support page has a list of compatible models. Just make sure your Kindle is registered to your Amazon account and has Wi-Fi access—those are the big requirements. One thing to note is that some library books have DRM restrictions, so you’ll need an internet connection to borrow and return them. Also, the Kindle Fire tablets work a bit differently since they run Android, but they can still access OverDrive through the Libby app. If you’re using an e-ink Kindle, the process is straightforward: borrow the book, send it to your Kindle, and it appears like any other purchase. Just remember, not all libraries offer Kindle-compatible books, so check your library’s OverDrive catalog first.

Can OverDrive Sync Bookmarks Between Kindle Devices?

3 Answers2025-07-08 19:52:45
I use OverDrive and Kindle pretty regularly, and from my experience, OverDrive doesn’t directly sync bookmarks between Kindle devices. When you borrow an ebook through OverDrive and send it to your Kindle, it behaves like any other Kindle book—meaning highlights and notes sync via Amazon’s Whispersync, but bookmarks don’t carry over if you switch devices. I’ve tried this myself with my Kindle Paperwhite and Kindle app on my phone, and while my notes stayed consistent, the bookmarks didn’t transfer. If you rely heavily on bookmarks, you might need to manually place them again on each device, which can be a bit tedious but is doable.

What Publishers Support OverDrive For Kindle Books?

I’ve been using OverDrive for years to borrow Kindle books from my local library, and I’ve noticed a few big-name publishers consistently pop up. Penguin Random House is a major player—they offer a ton of popular titles, from bestsellers like 'The Midnight Library' to classics like '1984.' HarperCollins is another reliable one, with everything from YA hits like 'The Cruel Prince' to gripping thrillers like 'The Silent Patient.' Hachette also supports OverDrive, so you can find gems like 'The Song of Achilles' or 'Educated.' Smaller indie publishers are hit-or-miss, but these three giants keep my Kindle stocked with quality reads.

Does OverDrive On Kindle Support All Library EBooks?

3 Answers2025-08-09 05:00:27
I’ve been using OverDrive with my Kindle for years, and while it’s super convenient, it doesn’support every library eBook out there. The compatibility depends on whether the book is available in Kindle format through your library’s OverDrive system. Most libraries offer a mix of EPUB and Kindle books, but some titles are EPUB-only due to publisher restrictions. I’ve run into this issue a few times—especially with newer or indie titles. If a book isn’t Kindle-compatible, you’ll see an option to download it in EPUB format instead, which won’transfer to your Kindle directly. In those cases, I use the Libby app to read on my phone or tablet. It’s a bit of a bummer, but OverDrive still covers a huge portion of my reading list.
