Regular users will have noticed some big changes to search.overdrive.com<http://search.overdrive.com> last week. Search has tens of thousands of visitors every day but the old site was getting a bit out of date. The new design is just the start of a big effort to modernize and improve the utility of one of our most important destinations. To begin with, we’ve focused on two key things: speed and usability on mobile devices. We’ve also retired ‘classic’ search and replaced it with a more intuitive and familiar faceted search interface – you can start with general searches and use the filters on the left nav. bar to narrow them down quickly and accurately.

As with all such initiatives, we appreciate that change can be disruptive – if there’s something you can’t find, or are having trouble with, please reach out to us at blogs at overdrive.com<mailto:blogs at overdrive.com>. We’re listening and happy to help!

Over the coming months we’ll be rolling out new features – alongside the inevitable bug-fixes – that will make it even easier to find your nearest library, or your next favorite book.
