You can watch a getting started video here.
- Apple App Store (for iOS devices)
- Google Play (for Android devices)
- Direct download from OverDrive, the developers of Libby (for Amazon Fire tablets)

In Libby, follow the prompts to find your library and sign in with your library card number and PIN. If you need help recovering your PIN, please give us a call at (845) 586-3791
Browse your library’s catalog and borrow a title.
Borrowed titles appear on your Shelf () and download to the app automatically when you’re connected to Wi-Fi, so you can read them when you’re offline.
On your Shelf, tap loans at the top of the screen. From there, you can:
- Tap Read With… to choose where you’d like to read the book (Kindle or Libby), then finish sending to Kindle or start reading in Libby.
- Tap Open In Libby, Open Magazine, or Open Audiobook to start reading or listening in the app.
- Tap Manage Loan to see options like Renew and Return.
Happy reading!
