Convenient and customizable
New titles are added to your online collection without any processing, so you have more time to spend on other important tasks while
still maintaining control of your collection. You design the plan to fit your needs; add as many or as few titles as you wish and keep the titles coming for as long as you choose. You get the best of both worlds--the latest releases automatically added to your collection, without extra work!
When you sign up for OverDrive's Download Standing Order Plans, you select the publisher plan and how many units of each Frontlist title you wish to receive each month. New titles will appear on your website when they are available--even before their release date--so patrons can place holds on the titles they want to check out. You'll create anticipation for these titles and increase awareness of
your current collection, all to maximize circulation.
