OverDrive's student-friendly platform, Sora, offers eBooks and audiobooks. Sora integrates with the Public Library so you can check out public library books too (instead of using Libby).
This guide will teach you how to get started with Sora and navigate this program. You can use Sora on your phone, tablet, or computer to read eBooks and listen to audiobooks. All you need is your NYC student email (@nycstudents.net)

Click the three horizontal lines icon in the top right corner to open the side toolbar. This menu includes the option to "Add a public library."
Search for your library (ex. New York Public Library, Brooklyn Public Library, etc.), and you will be able to browse their collections as well! All you will need is your library card and pin number.
Sora limits the titles being seen to Juvenile and Young Adult, but this setting can easily be changed by clicking "Preferences" and changing the "Audience" setting. You can select your preferred audience, limiting to only Juvenile, or adding in General Adult titles as well.
...and you're ready to enjoy Sora!
