Off topic, but one thing I wish I could do is donate a single copy epub I have the rights to to all libraries. It should be technically possible (many of the places I have lived the local library uses Overdrive).

Ownership of digital files is a murky domain.
When you say you have the rights to it, you might only have the right to read it, not to give it to anyone else. What was the license text when you bought it?
Oh to be clear, these are books I own the copyright to (published through my own imprint).
This is a group that gets independent author ebooks into public libraries. Perhaps contact them to find out how to do it:
