Throughout the summer, we hosted our Curated Collection Naming Contest and we’re excited to announce the winners in all five of the categories. We received nearly 200 entries and each of the five categories had over 500 votes. The following libraries will receive content credit to spend in OverDrive Marketplace. If you’re looking for creative ideas to spruce up your digital collection lists, be sure to visit our Resource center Collection Development page or contact your OverDrive representative.
