Libby

An ad for Libby, a reading app, shown on a phone, with app store links and the text "Happy Reading."

Library employees recommend that you download the libby app for eBooks/Audiobooks on your mobile device. If you would like to read on a desktop computer or laptop, please use https://libbyapp.com/ to get started and to access the catalog. Certain eReaders will also require you to use https://libbyapp.com/.

You will need a library card number and PIN number to access the catalog. Your default PIN number is the last four digits of your library card number.

This is perfect for getting eBooks/Audiobooks on your mobile devices and computers. It connects directly to the Indiana Digital Library.
