Library-Lending Platform Hires Media Industry Veteran as New Leader

Marc DeBevoise, who previously ran video platforms for Brightcove and CBS, became CEO of OverDrive on June 23, 2026. OverDrive manages digital books for libraries. His experience negotiating deals with publishers directly addresses disputes over how many times libraries can lend the same ebook. The hire signals KKR's strategy of bringing in deal-makers rather than tech founders to lead mature companies.
