How eBorrowing Works
Checking Out Materials
You must have a valid
Leeds and the Thousand Islands Public Library Card and PIN to check out titles. You can have up to 10 titles checked out at any given time. The lending periods can vary from title to title. These can be set to either 7, 14, or 21 days at the time of checkout.
Returning & Renewing Materials
Materials will expire automatically at the end of the checkout period. These items do not have to be returned and late fines are never applied. Unfortunately, titles cannot be renewed. However, you can check them out again if they are available when the checkout period ends.
Supported & Unsupported Devices
Currently, the Amazon Kindle is not compatible with OverDrive material in Canada. Check the
complete list of compatible devices to ensure your device works with OverDrive materials.
Login Problems
You may be unable to log in or check out items from OverDrive if your library account is blocked, your card has expired or you have forgotten your PIN.
