Libby is a free mobile app that lets you borrow from our largest collection of eBooks, audiobooks, and magazines with your library card on any device.
Whether you’re already using the Libby app or you’re just getting started, we’ve got six pro tips to help you maximize Libby using tags.
- Stay Organized #TBR : Track your “to be read” list in the same place you read or listen.
Save Faves: Can’t get enough? Tag a title so you can go back and easily enjoy it again and again. - Follow a Series: Tag all the books in a series and use the Borrowed tag to track which titles you’ve read and what’s up next.
- Help the Library: Instead of placing holds, use a tag to save and organize books you want to read until you’re ready. eBooks for libraries cost an average of $65—that’s up to 5x more than the public market!
- Sort by Mood: Make tags like happy, sad, or scary so you can choose books that match your vibe.
- Collect Recommendations: Tag books recommended by a specific friend, family member, or book club so you can read them later.
- Plan Ahead: Got your eye on a title that’s coming soon? Use the Notify Me tag to get a heads up when it’s available or when the same author has a new release.
