Books & Reading
This is an easy one. I've been downloading Overdrive books (but mostly not with the app--just reading in my browser) and teaching elementary school kids and other patrons how to do this for a while now. But I had not downloaded the Overdrive app until now. I found it pretty easy to follow the directions, and checked out my first book, Craig Ferguson's American on Purpose. I also added it to my homescreen and have found it so nice to have something to read, even if I forget to bring a book, while waiting for my car to get worked on or a kid to get done with soccer practice.
Goodreads is another site I've used for a long time now, keeping track of my personal reading and work reading. It's helpful with Reader's Advisory if I keep up with it and tag the books right, plus I love to see what my friends are reading. Anyway, now I have the Goodreads app on my phone. So far I find it easier to use on my computer, especially if I'm going to write a review, but if I wanted to browse, I guess it would be handy to have on my phone.
