Ratings and Reviews
Editors’ Notes
There’s only one thing easier than visiting the library: bringing it to you. Meet Libby, an app that lets you log in to your local library to access ebooks, audiobooks, and magazines, all for the reasonable price of free. Sign in, link your library card, and go—it’s that simple.
Amazing features, and great customer support
I really appreciate the team who produces/develops this app. I've been using this for a few months now and the app hasn't been complacent and gradually listening to user feedback as well as introducing cool features tha are spot on.
Recently I learned that holds now have a "Borrow" option once available which lets you decide to immediately loan it or delay for sometime. It's always been a big issue for me since sometimes a book becomes available for me earlier than I expected and turns out I don't have time yet to read it within the borrowing period so in the end I just return it and queue again. Thank you for making a solution for this!!
Books that bring Joy and Comfort
I not only learn from the books but I also enjoy the books I borrow. I like audio books specially when travelling because I get motion sickness reading while riding in a vehicle.
Thank you.
Maybe, it would be helpful to also have a larger selection of books for spiritual reading and comfort.
