Access to digital content is provided by a third party supplier who delivers access to the platform and content through their own systems. Please be aware that the supplier will be the data controller for the information it collects. The supplier has servers in the US and has their own terms and conditions which you will need to read before choosing to use their service.
The Library Service is not responsible for third party content, and the information you share with the third party supplier.
Please note - you will need to be a member of Bath & North East Somerset Libraries, Dorset Libraries, North Somerset Libraries, Somerset Libraries or South Gloucestershire Libraries to access this service. Bristol Libraries & BCP (Bournemouth, Christchurch & Poole) Libraries do not currently subscribe to this service.
How does it work?
For smartphone or tablet:
The easiest way is to download the free Libby app from the Apple Store or Google Play. However, you can also go to https://libbyapp.com/, click on the middle icon at the bottom of the screen, click on 'Add a library' to select your local library authority and then log on with your library membership number.
For Windows, Mac & Chromebook:
If you have a Windows or Mac computer or a Chromebook you will need to log on at https://libbyapp.com as there isn't a separate app available for these devices.
For Kindle Fire:
If you have a Kindle Fire please go to www.overdrive.com/apps and select the OverDrive app.
Not yet a library member? No problem - just go to www.librarieswest.org.uk/join to register and you can use your new digital library membership number to log on to Libby and start checking out digital magazines straight away!
Further help and advice is available on the Libby website and Libby app.
