Libby, the library app

Highly recommended - I love having access to all the resources of my public library.

Great app, I use it exclusively for audiobooks! It’s awesome that if you haven’t finished a book in three weeks time and had to stay on a waitlist again, the app remembers when you stopped last time.

Such a great resource. I love listening to audiobooks here, but often they “lag” and you get some unnatural hitches in the reading and have to reload. Still a great resource.

Why use any other audiobook platform when Libby exist :3

Har ingen bibliotek i mitt område og det nasjonale lånekortet mitt fungerer ikke på andre bibliotek selv om det burde gjøre det

Every second minute it jumps in to Home Screen it’s pretty much the most laggy app I have.I don’t know if it’s Libby or something else.but I still enjoy it.

Brukt denne en god stund nå, alt virker som det skal. Aldri hatt noe problem.

A digital public library service across borders is great for all who love e-books and audio books. The selection of accessible books increase a lot - in principle. It has, this last year since I discovered it, given me many great reading experiences of both classics and completely new publications, for which I love it. The main limitations of Libby is that many books have a low number of copies/licenses and are booked for months ahead, and then available only for 21 days since there is normally a queue of people waiting. Also books available at one day can be completely gone the next. This makes it hard both to get the books you want and finish the books you borrow on time. You can always borrow the book later, and the app keeps good track of the queue, but it is a bit of a nuisance to stop a book midway and then wait for months to continue it. The limitation in number of books to place on hold to five, has left me without a book to listen to for weeks. This may mainly be a funding issue, but nevertheless limits its usefulness somewhat. The Libby app works well, with good notice-functions, flexible tagging and speed control. It makes it possible to manage holds and wish lists.

One can see the books available through one’s library but can’t filter them by genre, huge blunder..

Great place to find interesting reads
