Metadata API
The Metadata API delivers detailed metadata for a specific title, including author, title's name, genre, synopsis, reviews, and more. Not all titles will have data for every metadata field. This metadata is provided by the title's publisher.
You can use the data from the Metadata API to display specific information on a title or to generate custom lists based on specific factors, such as notable reviewers (e.g., The New York Times).
Note: The examples below show our production API URL. If you're using our integration environment, use https://integration.api.overdrive.com or https://integration-patron.api.overdrive.com.
Using the Metadata API
You can navigate to a title's metadata by following the hypermedia links from the Search API.
The Metadata API accepts either a reserveId or crossRefId. The reserveId value is not case-sensitive.

When Merrin summons Things to do his bidding and aids a malevolent ghost of the first Chief Hermetic Scribe, the result sends Septimus on a Queste. No apprentice has ever survived such an ordeal, but the boy is determined to use this chance to find his brother Nicko, now trapped in time in a mysterious place called the House of Foryx. With his sister Jenna and friend Beetle by his side, he will either succeed in rescuing Nicko and his girlfriend or fall victim to a curse that has claimed too many others.

Each sample format is listed several times—once for each full format that a title's available in. For example, the Adobe EPUB ebook format in the response above lists two sample formats: ebook-epub-adobe and ebook-overdrive.
The OverDrive Read/Listen format (ebook-overdrive or audiobook-overdrive) is required for products using the Circulation APIs (if samples are offered) and strongly recommended for Discovery-only products. These samples can be opened in a browser and don't require users to download additional software.
Beneath the formats, you'll see the isReadAlong field. When true, the ebook is a read-along, which has professional narration that plays while you read.
Preorder titles
The only difference between ready-to-circulate titles and preorder titles is the onSaleDate in the Metadata response. In the case of a preorder title, the onSaleDate will show a future date. Preorders can't be borrowed, but users can search for and place holds on them.
Note: Publishers control the onSaleDate, so it may change without warning.
Sharing links to titles
For public libraries, the "links" section of the response will have a shareInLibby link. The Libby share link goes to a page with details about the title and its availability at nearby libraries (based on the user's IP address), along with links to download the Libby app.
You and your users can use these links to share information about specific titles (e.g., in blog posts, on social media, or via text messages).
Making a metadata call on a title that isn't in the collection
You can make a metadata call for a title that is no longer a part of the collection. Titles like this have isOwnedByCollections: false at the top of the response.
While you can get the metadata for these titles, users can't borrow or place them on hold.
Making a bulk metadata call
You can use this endpoint to get metadata for multiple titles at once. You can ask for the metadata for up to 50 titles at a time by supplying the reserveId or crossRefId for each one. These values can be passed using the parameter name "reserveIds" or "products."
For this endpoint, all titles need to be in the collection. If you provide ids for titles that aren't in the collection, no metadata will be returned and the totalItems won't match the number you requested.

Here Sharon carries the hopes and frustrations of her people on her shoulders as she battles her opponents on and off the court. Colton delves into Sharon's life and shows us the realities of the reservation, the shattered families, the bitter tribal politics, and a people's struggle against a belief that all their children — even the most intelligent and talented — are destined for heartbreak. Against this backdrop stands Sharon, a fiery, undaunted competitor with the skill to dominate a high school game and earn a college scholarship.

He tries to liven up a bit during dialogue scenes, but the character voices he uses for Tom and Huck don't have much depth. This is a serviceable version of the book, and if you haven't read it in a while, it's worth a listen. But it's not the classic version it could be. R.I.G.

After serving in the army during World War I, he studied philology and natural science at the University of Hamburg. He then married Margret Rey and they moved to Montmartre for four years. The manuscript for the first Curious George books was one of the few items the Reys carried with them on their bicycles when they escaped from Paris in 1940. Eventually, they made their way to the United States, and Curious George was published in 1941. Curious George has been published in many languages, including French, German, Japanese, Afrikaans, and Norwegian. Additional Curious George books followed, as well as such other favorites as CECILY G. AND THE NINE MONKEYS and FIND THE CONSTELLATIONS." } ], "links": { "self": { "href": "https://api.overdrive.com/v1/collections/v1L1BBQ0AAA2_/products/43f7c0c8-b10f-4546-81e1-221084059cd6/metadata", "type": "application/vnd.overdrive.api+json" }, "shareInLibby": { "href": "https://link.overdrive.com/share?titleId=2199797", "type": "text/HTML" } }, "images": { "thumbnail": { "href": "https://img1.od-cdn.com/ImageType-200/0874-1/{43F7C0C8-B10F-4546-81E1-221084059CD6}Img200.jpg", "type": "image/jpeg" }, "cover150Wide": { "href": "https://img1.od-cdn.com/ImageType-150/0874-1/43F/7C0/C8/{43F7C0C8-B10F-4546-81E1-221084059CD6}Img150.jpg", "type": "image/jpeg" }, "cover": { "href": "https://img1.od-cdn.com/ImageType-100/0874-1/{43F7C0C8-B10F-4546-81E1-221084059CD6}Img100.jpg", "type": "image/jpeg" }, "cover300Wide": { "href": "https://img1.od-cdn.com/ImageType-400/0874-1/43F/7C0/C8/{43F7C0C8-B10F-4546-81E1-221084059CD6}Img400.jpg", "type": "image/jpeg" } }, "languages": [ { "code": "en", "name": "English" } ], "isPublicDomain": false, "isPublicPerformanceAllowed": false, "gradeLevels": [ { "value": "50" }, { "value": "100" }, { "value": "200" } ], "atos": 2.9, "interestLevel": "LG", "lexileScore": 550, "shortDescription": "One hot summer day, George and the man with the yellow hat go to the beach.
