Meet Libby

The Overdrive app has been updated to a smarter, easier, more user-friendly app called Libby and you can download it now!

Choose from thousands of ebooks and audiobooks for free, using just the device in your hand and a valid library card. It takes just a few taps to find and borrow a title. Libby allows you to sign in to multiple libraries, with one or more cards for each library. You can download ebooks and audiobooks for offline reading or stream them to save space. And if you prefer reading on your Kindle, Libby can send your library books to it.

The new Libby app from Overdrive makes the process easy and accessible for anyone. Available for Apple and Android devices.
