[Elizabeth Davis]

Jeff, 

Thanks for the welcome! 

This sounds like something with great promise.  I'll be interested to see how it works out.

On a related note, a contractor for Sitka has written code to make use of OverDrive's APIs in the Evergreen OPAC:

http://git.sitka.bclibraries.ca/gitweb/?p=sitka/overdrive-evergreen-opac.git;a=summary

Please note that this is NOT ready to use yet (among other things, there are some hardcoded Sitka-specific URLs).  We are currently reviewing and testing the code; I had been planning to do some cleanup over the next couple of weeks before inviting others to try it out.

If Evergreen developers like the look of it, maybe this can also serve as a basis for OneClickDigital integration?  It's not currently set up to work with multiple ebook/audiobook vendors, but there will naturally be some shared functionality between OverDrive and OneClickDigital, and it would make sense for the OPAC to reuse the same code for both.

P.S. Welcome to the Evergreen community, Elizabeth!
