Help with eBooks and Our Digital Collection

FAQs

  • If you search for a title, author or series in Libby that returns no results, Libby will automatically do a “deep search” to display relevant titles that are not currently in our collection but are available for us to purchase. You can apply a "Notify Me" smart tag to be notified if we add the title to our collection in the future.

    Note: Due to budgetary constraints, adding a "Notify Me" smart tag does not guarantee that we will be able to purchase the title.

    Read more about the "Notify Me" tag by visiting the Libby Help website.
