[Electronics-Talk] accessible book reading apps

[Tina Sohl]

Hi. Just FYI, that overdrive's going away later this month, they're
wanting everyonge to switch to libby. I'm on android and after
learning that tried libby finding it to be much improved in terms of
accessibility, so am sure it is on iOS too. I agree, try hoopla and
libby if your library offfers both.  Ours does and they're nice book
sources. Can't have too many books in my mind.
