"As a leader in this market, OverDrive is dedicated to fueling this growth by continuing our efforts to streamline distribution processes, integrate with service bureaus, and provide a seamless link to our growing network of library, school and retail channels around the world." EPUB eBooks are enhanced for mobile reading with reflowable text to fit any screen size. The standard format for eBooks and other digital publications was developed by the International Digital Publishing Forum (www.idpf.org) and adopted by leading publishers and technology firms as the industry standard for eBooks. OverDrive, an IDPF member company, was an early proponent of the industry standard for eBooks and has developed streamlined systems for distribution of EPUB files in its retail and library channels. OverDrive provides digital download distribution for Borders.com, eFollett.com, BooksonBoard.com, Waterstone's (UK), Papyless (Japan), hundreds of college bookstores, and other online retailers.
