Update on the OverDrive & Libby apps

Attention, OverDrive app users! OverDrive is discontinuing the legacy OverDrive app in early 2023 and transitioning users to the Libby app. Libby is OverDrive’s newer app for browsing and enjoying digital content from our library.

It’s time to give Libby a try! All your loans, holds, and wish list items will be waiting for you in Libby when you add your library card.

Libby also comes with new features we know you’ll love, like:

  • Tags to categorize books however you’d like—you can even sync your OverDrive wish list into a tag!
  • A central bookshelf for all loans and holds
  • Customizable notifications for ready holds
  • Compatibility with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Sonos speakers

Learn more here.

We are excited to share a new online resource–Brainfuse. Need help with VA benefits, job searches, or even homework? Brainfuse is for you! The three areas of assistance are:

HelpNow – online tutoring, writing labs, practice tests (ACT, SAT, ASVAB, US Citizenship), resume assistance and more.

JobNow – help with job searches, resume templates, resume review, online coaching, interview prep and more.
