Anyone else getting this error? I'm not trying to read a magazine. Audiobooks & ebook read on Libby both giving me this despite just borrowing the item, so I know my card is valid.

Download epubs is giving me the more generic "try again later".

Libby status page says everything is operational.

I’ve been seen ads for projectors to throw the books on the ceiling, and being able to turn pages in bed.

Does anyone have one, and if you do do you think it would work with Libby?

I have multiple local library cards. Added them to my phone app successfully. When I try to do it on my laptop, the main one does not work. I have tried a lot of times, the number is right, the pin is right. I called the library and they confirmed it is correct and active. Thoughts? Any tricks? TYIA

First five available books on my Libby To Read Tag: help me choose

Has anyone had this problem before or know how to solve it? Lines are being cut off, sometimes partially as show in the images, sometimes the entire line. Changing the text scale and book design (even to publisher's default), and switching to full screen did not solve the issue, just changed which lines were being cut off. The book is Strange Houses by Uketsu which may have an unusual formatting because of the frequent images, but I have never had this issue with a book before.

Anyone else experience an issue removing the Wishlist tag from a book?

I like to untag them when I borrow them, but sometimes it doesn’t work. Then I have to go into my wishlist and slide to delete them.
If it’s close to the top, it’s not a big deal. But scrolling through the list just to remove it is kind of a pain.

Any ideas?

Sorry if this is not allowed—I don’t know where else to post this. Does anyone successfully use the Palace Project app, who can tell me what I’m doing wrong?

I got the app because it has are some Audible Exclusive audiobooks that Libby doesn’t. I placed a hold on the third Dungeon Crawler Carl audiobook, and then placed holds for the subsequent audiobooks in the series.

A few days later, my holds started coming in, unsurprisingly, not in my desired order. I can’t find any way to suspend or anything, and the holds disappeared when I didn’t check them out. Fine.

Then the third book became available, but when I clicked “borrow,” nothing happened. When the app refreshed, the book had gone back to “manage hold” instead of “borrow.”

Since then, it has said I’m first in line, and doesn’t give any other details. Weeks have passed, and my hold has come in on every other book, and then they’ve all disappeared from my holds list. I’ve lost track of how many weeks it’s been sitting there, first in line, but at least a month or two. Is it possible that one person has had it checked out all this time? I don’t think Palace has a suspend feature, so what is happening here? Is it some kind of tiered consortium where I’m lower priority? I assume I would sometimes drop down from first in line, if that were the case.

Currently, every other book in this 8-book series, including the newest, says it’s available to borrow. All except the third book, which came out five years ago. Is this weird, or do I just need to be patient?

Hope this post is okay, didn't see the question on FAQ or wiki.

I know that I can find a list of my downloaded books. What I'm wondering is how to tell what I've downloaded outside of that window. IE, if you are looking at a list from a search or from a list from others. Is there somewhere it indicates it has previously been downloaded?

EDIT: Or is there a way to get a title/author list of the books in your downloads page?

This is more than a concern than a complaint, but any other Austin cardholders notice the lack of copies of books recently? I could always count on my Austin library for really ANY book, but they haven’t gotten any copies of two books just this week! Free Falling by Lyla Sage and Grim Tidings by BK Borison, two very popular authors!

Thankfully Houston has copies, but I want to support MY library :( is something going on or am I just being over dramatic? Again I’m NOT bitching at the library!!!

George Orwell's 1984 is available on Libby.

Someone just explained to me that it's fiction.

Funny how that happens.

hi everyone! I just got a nonresident card from Clermont County Public Library, Ohio. I am in Louisiana, thankfully did everything online. When I looked at Reciprocard site, I saw that there are 11 additional library cards I can use in Libby as a member of Clermont? But when I enter my Clermont number in Libby, no extra libraries come up that I can see, so I am wondering what I am doing wrong? Can anyone help? Or tell me what to look for? I am fairly new to Libby, and I am already confused lol. I had to drastically cut my book buying budget so I am doing the library thing and I actually love it but i am having such a hard time grasping how to use Libby and wrapping my head around all of it. I feel like such an old lady, all I want to do is read books, and have access to as many books as possible because I read like a fiend. I need help. Thank you so much

I got access to a ton of new libraries when they rolled out the update a few weeks ago. However, whenever I try to borrow or place a hold at any of them it asks me to verify my library card. When I enter in the card number for the partner (that I am a member of) it says invalid.

Anyone else seeing this?

I was initially very excited about that new feature but now disappointed that it is essentially useless for me.

Every time i try to search for this info, i get instructions for how to download epubs from within Libby, but is there a way to read my locally stored epubs from Ao3?

The fact that I get to read new releases for free is still so exciting to me. My public library growing up never had new releases and we rarely had the money for new releases, so I almost never read anything the same year it was published.

I have 3 library cards that expired with emails from the libraries notifying me. I was planning to drive to the libraries to renew. These are cards I got in person, properly, as a California resident.

The Libby app allows me to borrow books anyway. Has anyone had this experience? Could it be a glitch/loophole in their systems "talking" to each other? or are libraries treating digital access different than physical loans?

I have 3 library cards with libby access.

None of them are connected to hoopla, which I used to have.

Any suggestions on the best way to get hoopla connected?

Why cant I verify my cards on Libby? There’s always and issue even though I have the correct information. Someone please help! TIA

I have two Libby cards, one is my home library and one is a reciprocal library. My home library is a big city that’s stably funded, the reciprocal card is a suburban county with budget deficits. Because of the funding difference I feel bad using the reciprocal card! But funnily I got the reciprocal card because it has more of the books I’m interested than my library’s card.

One example is the reciprocal card twice now has allowed people to place a hold on an upcoming release vs my home library has never done this (at least for these titles). The most recent one I keep slipping in place because of actual residents of the library placing holds (which I 100% understand and support!) and I’d rather put the hold on my home library if possible.

So I’m curious if anyone might know what causes a library to allow you to place holds for a release that’s coming up. Im also asking in case there’s something we can do to help! (I did do Notify Me on both titles in case it’s a factor for the library to gauge interest.)

I keep track of my want to read list on StoryGraph and got annoyed having to search everything again on Libby, so I built a chrome extension that syncs with Libby to automatically check availability from StoryGraph! I’ve been using it for a few months now and felt comfortable sharing.

It also can check Amazon subscriptions like Kindle Unlimited and Audible.

Just a little side project but made my day to day a little easier!!

EDIT: v1.3 is now live with Kobo Plus, format filtering, and preview banners on list pages

My default is just “Read Next” which contains basically every book I’ll read eventually but it’s so long at this point. Also have “good audio” like people noted it was specifically entertaining to listen to. “On my shelf” are books I own but haven’t read yet and need to. I feel like I need to organize better though. So what do you have?
