Libby appThe legacy OverDrive app was discontinued on May 1, 2023. We encourage users to upgrade to the Libby app. Libby is the newer app from OverDrive, with lots of features we know you’ll love. It offers the best reading experience for all ages and provides the same great content in the OverDrive app!

It’s easy to switch to Libby!

  1. Install the Libby app from the app store on your Android or iOS (iPhone/iPad) device.
  2. In Libby, follow the prompts to find your library and sign in with a valid HSPLS library card.
  3. Browse your library’s collection and borrow a title.
