OverDrive for Mac and OverDrive MP3 audiobooks are not compatible with the newest macOS version, 10.15 (Catalina), which was released on October 7, 2019. This is because Apple requires all apps in macOS Catalina or newer to be 64-bit, and OverDrive for Mac (which is required for downloading MP3 audiobooks) is 32-bit. If you're running macOS Catalina or newer, these are your audiobook options:

- Install the OverDrive or Libby app (for libraries) or the Sora app (for schools) directly on a compatible portable device and listen to audiobooks through the app.
