Overdrive (which is Libby) integrates directly into the Kobo OS so you can borrow books directly on the device instead of the roundabout way you have to do it on the Kindle.
Its also available as an app on all android based e-readers.
Overdrive's being phased out and being replaced by Libby according to the 2 libraries I frequent. I wonder if it will still be supported on Kobo OS once the website and apps are shut down?
My library has used Libby for years. It's another version of Overdrive. My library books download to Kobo fine unless they're changing something else I don't know about.
My wife uses Libby and books go directly to her kindle.
