Pikes Peak Library District (PPLD) cardholders have checked out 3 million digital items on Libby and OverDrive so far this year. It is about six weeks earlier than we reached this milestone in 2024, and PPLD is on track to hit a record 4 million checkouts by the end of this year.
“This is exciting news for us, because it shows that the Library is being used by patrons more than ever before,” said Jenny Pierce, director of collection management for PPLD. “People continue to use our digital services to access eBooks, eAudiobooks, eMagazines, and movies.”
We are honored to connect our community with this eLibrary resource. Since we started tracking this data, we have provided our community with 26.5 million digital items through OverDrive and Libby. The three millionth checkout was Mind Over Money by Claudia Hammond.
