I have used Overdrive. It is a free tool through the library system. I am
not sure if it is a nationwide product, but is available through the library
system in Florida. Books are not as widely available as it is through BARD.
You have to "borrow" access to the book and are given a time limit on how
long you can have the book. You also have to "return" the book so others can
borrow it.  It is however, accessible using assistive technology on the
phone.

Hi All, 
I was wondering if any of you have accessed e-books through your library, on
apps such as Libby. I would be curious to hear whether or not you found them
to be accessible, and I thought I'd post here, because we all write and
read. 
I think I would want to use my iPhone but would be open to other ways of
access as well. 
Thanks, 
Vejas
