CLEVELAND, May 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- As a result of the innovative team of librarians at Cleveland Public Library in 2003, popular ebook and audiobook lending is celebrating its 20th anniversary. Cleveland Public Library (CPL) librarians Patricia Lowrey, Cindy Orr, Sari Feldman and Tracy Strobel directed an eager local ebook development team at OverDrive to build and launch what would become the first popular ebook and audiobook service from a library. Because of their efforts, digital library lending would grow exponentially as millions of readers today enjoy access to ebooks, audiobooks, magazines, comics and streaming video from 88,000 public, school, academic and special libraries in 109 countries.

Key Points: 
  • Because of their efforts, digital library lending would grow exponentially as millions of readers today enjoy access to ebooks, audiobooks, magazines, comics and streaming video from 88,000 public, school, academic and special libraries in 109 countries.
  • Much has changed in 20 years – as shown in this NBC News clip from the early 2000s introducing "online libraries" – but the fundamentals of digital library lending established by the Cleveland librarians have continued to this day.
  • The librarians were ahead of their time: digital library lending launched four years before Kindle was introduced in 2007 and seven years before iPad and tablets became popular.
  • Libby enables public libraries and thousands of colleges, universities and corporate libraries to serve all readers with the most user-friendly interface and personalized features.
