How to get Libby on your device

Libby is available for iOS devices, Android devices, Amazon Fire tablets, and on Windows, Mac, and Chromebook computers.

This is important! When you are prompted to search for a library, you will type West Virginia Library Commission, and then select the library selection that has our address listed (1900 Kanawha Boulevard East) along with a heading that says West Virginia Reads. This is the only library you can select in order to use Libby with us.
