[ISLMA-Share] eBook/Audio Platforms

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

We use OverDrive for both eBooks and audio.  The system works great, and their tech support is very good, too.  Books, especially audio, can be really expensive, and I don’t like the 12, 24, or 36 month licenses from some of the publishers, but that is a publishing industry issue, not a platform issue.

Your school district should definitely look into the eRead Illinois program, managed by Axis360. https://ereadillinois.com/

I'm researching all the different platforms and companies offering eBooks/audio books. Does anyone have a platform that they use and love?
