These are OverDrive's components, named and scored by OverDrive. We do not map them onto the functions we check above, because we have no way to know which of their components our checks touch. Two lists, side by side, neither one rewriting the other.
This is OverDrive's own claim about their service, shown separately from what we measured. We never change our own numbers based on what a vendor reports, and this reading never changes theirs. Read both.

Check your own site while you wait on OverDrive
Watching an outage above does not tell you whether your own connection or site is also having a problem. Enter your own URL for one live check, right now, no signup. This checks the site you enter, not OverDrive. It cannot diagnose OverDrive's own systems.

These are unverified reports from people using OverDrive, counted separately from what our own probes measure. Anyone can file one, no account is needed, and the region on a report is chosen by the person filing it. We never open, extend or close an outage in our record based on report volume: only our own measurements do that. We have not received any reports for OverDrive yet, which is not evidence that nothing is wrong.
Recent probe events
check entries are our own probes' readings; declared entries are the vendor's. How this check works
We have been measuring OverDrive since November 2, 2026. We show nothing from before that date, and we never add an outage we did not observe ourselves, from any source.

What we check
What our check can and cannot see
A pass means the service's public web page loaded and answered normally. It does not show that the product, the API or sign-in behind it works; a page can load from a cache while the product is down.
