Partner Libraries in LIBBY APP

8/24/2019

 
How to access Overdrive Partner Libraries from the Libby mobile app:
  • Tap on the Libby icon at the top right of the homescreen.
  • Select "Add a Library" or select an already saved library from the list.
  • Search for one of the following:  Boston Public Library, CLAMS, CW MARS, Merrimack Valley Library Consortium, NOBLE, OCLN or Minuteman.
  • When asked to add a library card, choose "I'm visiting From Another Library."  Choose "SAILS Library Network." Enter your SAILS card number and PIN.
  • You can now search and check out materials from the partner library just as you do from the SAILS OverDrive catalog
  • Your Shelf displays all of your loans, holds, and tags from any network and library card added. You can completely manage or edit loans, holds, and tags from this one location.
  • Each entry on your Shelf also indicates which network you borrowed that item from. The lending library network is marked by a square "gem" with their library network brand colors.
  • AND once you log in to the partner libraries with your SAILS Card it remembers you in the Libby App so you don't have to worry about it again. All you have to do is Tap the Libby Icon in top right of screen and choose which Library Network you would like to search.

Thank you for a great Summer Reading Program!

8/19/2019

 
​Thank you, all, for a wonderful Summer Reading Program this year!

Perhaps you found a new genre, after the genre challenge. 

Maybe you read more than you ever thought you would. 

Maybe you finished your 1000 books before kindergarten. 

Maybe you just had a little bit of fun this summer at the library.

So thanks for coming by!

    Melissa, Director

    Melissa loves reading mysteries and historical fiction. She watches way too much hockey. And would like to have more time for crafting cool stuff.
