OverDrive is a library vendor that provides access to eBooks, magazines, and more. Kanopy is a library vendor that offers patrons a wide variety of streaming video content. In 2021, OverDrive acquired Kanopy. Starting September 1, OverDrive will no longer offer video collections on its platform. Instead, patrons can access streaming video content on Kanopy.

If you check out a video on Overdrive by September 1, you can keep watching it until the end of the borrowing period. After September 1, we encourage you to stream videos through other library services. Explore collections on hoopla, Kanopy, and more.
