An Adobe ID is an account created through the Adobe.com website. It allows the library user to download and open E-books that are DRM (Digital Rights Management) -protected. This is the ID you will need if you are using Adobe Digital Editions software on your computer to transfer E-books to E-readers.
OverdriveRead is the website interface to read E-books on your web browser. Since you are not downloading the E-book, this requires you to be constantly connected to the Internet while you are reading. OverdriveRead is very useful if you are unable, or unwilling, to use the apps or software required to download E-books you have borrowed.
