Why do I need an Adobe ID to read eBooks?
The eBooks that you check out from OverDrive contain digital rights management (DRM) protection that restricts the items from being shared with others. In the past, this could limit the ability to read your items on additional computers owned by you. It could even prevent you from moving your items when you bought a new computer.
Adobe Digital Editions helps ensure that your eBooks and other digital publications are not "locked" on one computer - they are assigned to you through your Adobe ID. Adobe Digital Editions also adds support for the next generation of mobile devices.
Adobe membership is free and registration only takes a minute.
