Virtual Program: Learn Libby

Join Libby experts for a virtual training session on Monday, June 14 starting at 10 AM. OverDrive is offering a live webinar designed to introduce new users to and help existing users with Libby. 

The 90 minute program will be broken up into three parts:

10:00 – Getting Started (approx. 35 min.) – We cover downloading Libby, getting signed in, then key features and navigation (searching for titles, borrowing/placing holds, adjusting reading settings, audiobook features, and setting notification preferences) of the Libby app

10:35 – Open Office (approx. 10 min.) – During this time, we answer any questions from attendees and test attendees’ knowledge on what we just covered in Getting Started

10:45 – Tips & Tricks (approx.. 30 min.) – During this session, we take a deep dive into 4 of our favorite features of Libby (5 if your library uses Magazines). Following these tricks, we’ll use the remaining 15 minutes to answer and demo any questions that have come through live on screen.

Registered attendees can come and go as they please. Want to learn the basics? Come at 10:00. Just have a few questions? Come at 10:35. Already using Libby but want to know more? Join at 10:45.

Alsothe sessions will be recorded, and the recording will be automatically shared with anyone who registers for the event. You are encouraged to register even if you cannot attend the live event – you will still receive the recordings.

Registration is Required!
