Downloadable media

This is one of the lessons that I completed in 2007 when the library added downloadable media from OverDrive and NetLibrary. In fact, Robert Beebe and I worked with the vendors to bring downloadable media to the library.

NetLibrary/Recorded Books has a new format - Media Center - where you can download directly to your device without the hassle of using Windows Media Player. You can't download the Media Center on the library computers - you need administrator rights. Try this at home:

Go to http://www.netlibrary.com/MediaCenter/Download.aspx and login
For some unknown reason, the Media Center download did not automatically start. Look at Step 1 and click on start the download again.
Go through the installation process.
There should be a Media Center icon installed on your desktop.
Click on the icon and you will enter a great new interface for the Recorded Book downloadables.

I love downloadable media - the greatest thing since the Mickey Mouse Club song!
