OverDrive welcomed nearly 275 librarians, publishers, and suppliers to Cleveland, Ohio from all across the U.S., Canada,
and Mexico. Digipalooza '08 was OverDrive's 2nd international user conference.
Digipalooza '08 attendees began the packed weekend with an opening reception at the Historic Cleveland Renaissance Hotel.
Friday, Saturday, and Sunday included informational sessions from leading librarians on best practices and experience offering
digital media in the library. The weekend also included many opportunities for networking and fun. On Friday evening, attendees
chose to attend either the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum or the Cleveland Indians vs. Minnesota Twins baseball game
(Go Tribe! The Indians won 5-4). On Saturday, all attendees, friends and family, rocked to a live concert from Donnie Iris
and the Cruisers at the House of Blues Cleveland.
The conference program portrays the depth of information and education that was demonstrated at the user conference.

OverDrive welcomed more than 200 librarians and publishers to our home city of Cleveland, Ohio where we rock and rolled through a Digipalooza weekend. Digipalooza 2006 marked OverDrive's first national user meeting.
OverDrive and its partners kicked off the event with an opening vendor reception and dance party with 'Wild Horses.' Getting down to business on Saturday morning, librarians and publishers attended informational sessions covering the use of digital media in the library and visited the beautiful Cleveland Public Library, and much more! We continued the party into Saturday night with a trolley ride through downtown Cleveland to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. Sunday rounded off the digital media celebration with updates on the newest technology and a Crystal Ball Report from OverDrive's President and CEO, Steve Potash.
