Did you know that you can check out books from the library and read them on your phone?? Or a Kindle? (Superior experience IMO) And if you live in New York you can have THREE library cards at once and put holds on books at the Queens, Brooklyn, and New York branches to see which comes available first or simply scour all three for an old, dusty, rare read? It’s the best!

you can hook your library card(s) up to the libby app and check out all the ebooks and audiobooks your heart desires. you can also add multiple library cards to your libby account—which is great for people who want to share a libby account with their mom who lives out of state and new yorkers, who are allowed to have library cards from all three systems (the nypl, the bpl, and the qpl) no matter which borough you live in. basically any book you could want is available in any format you could want at any given time. and if they don’t have something, send your neighborhood library an email and they will buy it for you within a week!!!!!! fuck amazon & audible!!! long live libby! long live libraries!!!!!

I am truly obsessed with the Libby app. If you have a library card, a phone, and an e-reader, it is a free library in your phone/tablet/whatever. Billions and bazillions of audiobooks and books and more for free. A great way to try new books or audiobooks at your own pace, and there are no late fees. Perfection.

I don’t know if people are aware that you can easily borrow ebooks and audiobooks through your public library using this app. Also, I just recommend the library in general.

Type selection / touch area on mobile for text is a bit challenging and I usually have to delete type letter by letter or double click words one by one if I’m editing text. I can’t drag and highlight.

Elvis ate here. This place was just chock-full of Elvis memorabilia.
