Digital Check Out Help
If not, head on over to OverDrive and sign in by clicking the Sign in link in the top right. This will open the connection between the Library's website and OverDrive. Or if you have the OverDrive app installed on your mobile device, sign into that.
Your Library card needs to be renewed every three years. The expiration date is written on your library card. Just stop by the Welcome Desk to renew your card.
If you live in another town, e-Books and other digital content are limited to Darien residents, those who work in Darien, and Friends at the $300 annual donation level. Check your home library to see if they have OverDrive. Many Connecticut libraries do!
