Humble Endorsement: The Libby App

Travis here, checking in with a quick message: The Libby app is really pretty great.

It’s just that I’ve been using it lately and it’s honestly the first time I’ve really enjoyed the public library ebook experience.
The app walks you through connecting your public library card and finding your library system. The ebook checkout process is simple and smooth.
I still prefer physical books, but the Libby app has brought me back to checking out ebooks sometimes as well.
