=======Add a New Book for OverDrive Projects=======

OverDrive titles can be problematic when uploading to Converter Plus. This page goes over the current workflow with how to work around this issue, and will be updated as this feature is developed.

Navigate to the ''Add Book'' page from the main welcome page. On this page there are three sections:
  - Import Project
  - Sideload Book
  - Upload Book

See below for further instructions.

<note>You can use OverDrive metadata during Batch Mode. You can turn this function on in you [[public:nnels:mp3todaisy:profile-settings|Account Settings]].</note>

======Step One: Sideload or Upload Project======

<note>If a book you are adding has a similar project name to one already in your account, you may get an error when sideloading or uploading it. The error says: ''Error: Cannot add this file. Your account already contains a file or project with a similar name.''</note>

To Sideload a project for:

  * Make sure you are logged in to NNELS.ca
  * Navigate to the records page for the title you wish to download, or copy the URL from your assigned spreadsheet
  * Copy the URL for the records page for that title
  * Paste that link in the ''URL'' text box in Converter Plus
  * Select ''Get''
  * You can now Import the book from the top of the page with OverDrive Metadata. See instructions below for more.

To Upload a file from your computer:

  * Select Choose File
  * Select the file from your computer you wish to upload
  * Select Open
  * Once the upload is complete, refresh your browser
  * See ''Import Book with OverDrive Metadata'' section below for next steps

======Step 2: Import Book with OverDrive Metadata======

Once you have successfully Sideloaded or Uploaded your project, you can now Import the title with the OverDrive metadata.

To Import with OverDrive Metadata:
  * Make sure you have refreshed your browser
  * Navigate to the top section of the page with the heading ''Import Project''
  * Select the title from the dropdown menu labelled: ''Project''
  * Ensure "Use OverDrive Metadata" is selected. This is located directly below the ''Project'' menu
  * Select ''Import'' button
  * The title will start importing
  * Once it is imported you will be taken to the main project page.

Here is a [[https://somup.com/c3eFFETmLp|video tutorial]] walking you through the entire process.

You can now start working on the project. See [[public:nnels:mp3todaisy#renaming_and_reordering_tracks|Return to Renaming and Reordering Tracks]] for further instructions.

======Resetting Project with OverDrive Metadata to Project without OverDrive Metadata======

If you already have the project uploaded to your profile with the OverDrive Metadata, but you no longer want to use the OverDrive Metadata, you have two options to reset the project.

First option is to Remove the Project and Add it again:
  * Remove Project by following the directions on the [[public:nnels:mp3todaisy:remove_project|Remove Project Wiki]] page
  * Upload or Sideload the project again
  * Ensure the ''Use OverDrive Metadata'' is **not** selected. This is located directly below the ''Project'' menu
  * Select ''Import'' button
  * The title will start importing
  * Once it is imported you will be taken to the main project page.

The second option is to reimport the project:
  * Do not remove the book
  * Navigate to ''Add a Book''
  * Select the title from the dropdown menu labelled: ''Project''
  * Ensure the ''Use OverDrive Metadata'' is **not** selected. This is located directly below the ''Project'' menu
  * Select ''Import'' button
  * The title will start importing
  * Once it is imported you will be taken to the main project page.

Please note, this is a **hard reset** on the project and anything you have done up to this point on this project will be **erased** and you will have to start from the beginning again.
