OverDrive’s Security + PIN Requirements
The EILC Admin team was made aware of the email OverDrive sent out to libraries that a PIN or password will be required for patrons to log in to their OverDrive accounts.
If you currently require a PIN with Libby sign-in: Nothing will change for your library.
If you don’t currently require a PIN with Libby sign-in: The EILC Admin team is working with Overdrive to begin the PIN requirement for all Evergreen Indiana libraries on October 1, 2026. You will not need to contact Overdrive individually. You may want to start notifying your patrons that the PIN requirement is coming so they can be ready for the 1st.
