General Instructions from the site epubbooks.com

Library Books on a Dedicated eReader (Sony, Kobo, etc.)

eBook readers often have their own software for adding files, but we will stick with using Adobe Digital Editions to get your library ebooks onto your eReader.

This procedure will be very similar to the way you upload new content when you purchase ebooks from a store, so please refer to your documentation for more detailed help.

Otherwise here is the brief outline.

  1. Connect the eReader to your computer and start Digital Editions. 
  2. Unless you have already completed the setup procedure, you will be shown the “Device Setup Assistant” – you will need to authorise your reader. 
    Follow the instructions to do so. 
  3. From within Digital Editions drag the book(s) to your reader.
