Libby (eBooks and audio)

Library card holders may download or stream audio and eBooks through our membership with GMLC (Green Mountain Library Consortium) using Libby any time of the day or night, seven days a week.

Troubleshooting

If you recently lost access to Libby and are being asked to verify your card, follow the steps below.

We recently moved to a new online system and had to implement longer card numbers. We have merged the new number into your existing Libby card to preserve your checkouts and holds, but you will need to verify the card to get back in.

  1. Open your Libby app.
  2. Click the menu button (three stacked lines).
  3. There should be a message about needing to verify your card. Click that message.
    (Alternatively, you can navigate there by clicking Menu button, then Manage cards.)
  4. For your card number, enter 2050750000 followed by your four-digit card number.
  5. For your password, the default is the last four digits of the phone number on file for your library card.
  6. Click Log in.

 

If you are still having trouble, contact the librarians for help.

  3. Search for Green Mountain Library Consortium (GMLC). Click it to add.
  4. Click the “hamburger” menu > Manage Cards.
