In Libby, follow the prompts to find your library and sign in with a library card. Visit the "Add Libraries in Libby" guide to learn more about adding multiple library cards. 

Step 3

Find something to borrow:

  • Tap Search  to find a specific title, author, series, etc. 
  • Tap Library  to browse your library's catalog. You'll find helpful filters, catalog guides, campaigns, and curated lists created by STLS.

Your selection will vary based on your library, since each library chooses what titles and formats to offer in Libby.

Tip: Not ready to read a title, but want to keep track of it? Tag it for later.
