Returning Audiobooks from Overdrive

Finally you can now return the digital audiobooks from downloadLibrary early from you Windows computer! Well... at least the MP3 audiobooks can be returned early (still waiting on WMA audiobooks).   In the past, you had to wait for audiobook's loan period to expire before it could be removed from your library account. However as of today when you update Overdrive Media Console on your Windows computer, you have the option to return your MP3 audiobooks early.  

Here's what you need to do:

Open Overdrive Media Console on your computer.  You will receive a message prompting you to update to the latest version of the software.  Click on "Yes".

You will be taken to the Overdrive website. Click on "Download Now".

Follow the prompts through the Overdrive Media Console Setup Wizard.  Once the software is reinstalled you will have the ability to return the MP3 audiobooks.  It's quite simple to do, select the book title you want to return before it's due date, and then click the "Delete" button in the OMC toolbar.  You will have a new option of "Return/Delete" - click on that button.  The book is then removed from your Overdrive account.
