I use both libby and overdrive. I prefer overdrive. But my main issue with libby is that you can't recommend books through the app. But you can through overdrive.

I will miss not having that option. Just before reading this I was about to recommend a book and didn't, wondering if it would be useless to do so. I am glad I didn't bother.

I think that you should get the app now and just get used to it. Even if you still use overdrive. You can connect them together. Libby does make it easier to view the newly added books.

Do you mean new books to the library I might want or the books I added to my account and checked out?

I was concerned if I added the Libby app I would lose my OverDrive. I will likely downloaded sooner than later. Thanks.

So, everyone here prefers OverDrive, so, of course, that’s the one they’re getting rid of.

The video I turned off yesterday kept scrolling through all the different categories I could browse looking for books. My eyes prefer to browse on a computer screen.

I think that it's older. I mostly just prefer it because of being able to suggest books months in advance (that i then get put to the front of the line). And i do also find the fonts and choices to read a bit better on overdrive.

Older, however, they have made updates for the years that have improved it.

Oh no, I hope I don't have an issue with the fonts, not with my eyes hurting all the time. Now I am concerned when I adjust the brightness it will be too bright at night. I do hope that hasn't changed.

As long as I can still get my books through it, I guess I'll survive.

True, at least I hope so

George I do understand Libby is just a new name for OverDrive, still it is different and requires work to change over all of my devices.

I download it and right away check IN the item on my library's OverDrive site so that it becomes available for the next patron, BUT it doesn't go away from my Kindle! It's called "working the system."

Working the system and being considerate to others at the same time.

Annabelle will still want to play Grizabella and sing "Memory."

Vixmom, it's fine to disagree. I included the 90s because of this guy, even though he was actually born prior to that. And I said clearly it's not all young people, but especially from 2000 on, this is what I've seen.

Giving more thought to today’s TOD:
I think that certain reality tv shows have had a negative impact on real life behavior and values.

DR Iris · « **Reply #53 on:** August 02, 2022, 11:50:21 AM »

Not everyone watches the Kardashians, Real Housewives, Jersey Shore and Honey Boo Boo, of course.

DR Iris · « **Reply #54 on:** August 02, 2022, 11:53:20 AM »

However, the fact that young people idolize and imitate these reality tv stars has not been healthy for them, or for society in general.

DR Iris · « **Reply #55 on:** August 02, 2022, 11:55:29 AM »

Or, have I simply turned into a curmudgeon?

DR Elmore, I was living in California and New York until March of 2020.
Ended up living near my family in Maryland when Covid hit.
I still have a place in New York, and hope to spend more time there in the future.
I miss California, but I have no desire to go back to flying on a regular basis in this lifetime.

Not sure what to think about this new production of CATS.
ALW can’t seem to move on, can he?

DR Iris · « **Reply #58 on:** August 02, 2022, 12:01:37 PM »

MEOW.
😁

DR Iris · « **Reply #59 on:** August 02, 2022, 12:04:28 PM »

Bruce, it’s so nice that you’re getting a chance to spend time with your DD.
I miss that so much, and it’s the main reason that I have decided to stay on the East Coast.
My daughter and her husband have permanently settled in Brooklyn.
