Libby
Libby is an app that allows you to read / listen to e-books and audiobooks from your phone or tablet. Libby was created by OverDrive, an app that has been around for quite some time to assist patrons with accessing electronic materials. Libby has the same collection of titles as the OverDrive app with an easy to use digital browsing experience.
Libby is available on Android, iOS, or in your browser*. You can check out books and read/listen to them right from the Libby app. Just download the Libby app from your Apple App Store or Google Play. (You can also visit libbyapp.com in your Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge browser.)
- Open the app and follow the prompts to find your library and sign in with a library card.
- Once you borrow a book, you can start reading immediately – no need to choose a file format!

OverDrive
OverDrive is the classic library companion website-based application. Please note, as of February 23, 2022: The OverDrive app was removed from the Apple App Store, Google Play, and the Microsoft store. New users looking for the OverDrive app will be directed to Libby. Users who previously installed the OverDrive app (mobile or desktop) will still be able to use it without disruption. All users can continue to access your library’s OverDrive website.
