I’m new to adding libraries but love this app! How do I add different libraries where I do not actually live when they are asking that you live in their area to sign up?!

Anyone had this issue with an audiobook? I have checked to make sure no timers are set, the book will just stop repeatedly. I have logged out and back in but the problem continues

I have a few other library cards that I was able to get for free through Reciprocard but I'm open to paying for one if they have a lot of books in Spanish. Does anyone have suggestions on specific libraries that offer their card, even for a fee, through Reciprocard who might have a large amount of books in Spanish?

Hello all! Not sure if this is the proper subreddit to post this on but...hopefully!

Soo my husband has been getting into audiobooks via Libby. We live in LA county but heard that Alameda County offers free library cards for CA residents. I got an ecard a few months ago, and then was able to get a physical card too.

However, this week, when my husband was signing up for the ecard and then the library card, he received an email from AC saying that library cards are emailed to residents only in their counties.

Is this a recent change? I have been looking online at their FAQ and cannot find any information on the change. How is it possible that I got a library card from them through the mail but now he can't?

And yes, I emailed their support earlier this week but have not gotten a response. Any info helps!!

So I have access to 6 libraries (partner libraries with my local one) and 4 of 6 always have a bunch of skip the line books available. For the past week though, none of them have had a single skip the line book. Is this a glitch? Or are there periods where they just don’t have them? It’s odd…

I have just discovered DK and its various series of books. I love the illustrated encyclopedias and was interested in taking one or two on a trip but I’m not quite confident in the internet where I’m going. Many of these books turn out to be web-based reading only. Am I right in assuming that means they won’t be available offline? I tried turning off wifi on my laptop (the books really look best on a larger screen) and it didn’t look like it was loading the pictures which is kind of the point of the books. Am I doing something wrong?

Hey all! Looking for some advice. I have an IPhone, and for the past few weeks I keep having issues with the app. It will get stuck on the loading page, it will sometimes open the library but won’t let me scroll or click on titles, and overall it’s not working. This is leading me to miss my hold windows and it’s led to books being returned before I can listen/read them. Here is what I’ve tried:
Force quitting app
Running app updates (there have been none which I haven’t installed)
Turning off and on WiFi
Deleting and reinstalling app
Deleting things to make storage open on phone
Restarting phone
Updating settings with my WiFi and phone provider
Opening app to different pages

Nothing has worked. I’m desperate as I love my app. Has anyone else experienced this? How did you fix it?

I am reading this series and these last couple of books are dragging and taking me forever to read (currently on Born of Blood and Ash), but I am determined to finish this series. I was hoping to find a library copy of the audiobook version since that will help me get through these books faster, but I have not had any luck in my search. Does anyone know if their library has an audiobook copy for The Primal of Blood and Bone (by Jennifer Armentrout)?? I know this will probably mean paying a non-resident fee to get a library card in another location, but I am all about supporting libraries <3.

Has anyone had any success applying for a non resident card from Canada? Not looking for a free one, and the wiki provided is just telling which libraries even offer the cards, so thought I would reach out to the people. I think with the queens library you could, I was going to try the Carnegie library of Pittsburgh, but apparently you still need to be American to get that card, any help is appreciated, thanks!

I’m so happy!!! Finally!!!!! 2x speed was not fast enough!! When was this???

Ok so I want to get another library card, I don’t mind paying, but also, I don’t want to pay for another card and only have access to the same stuff if that makes sense.
For anyone that has multiple cards, do you find that you have more variety and access? Do you have a favorite library you’ve gotten a card from.
Help a girl out I love in the middle of no where, I need some entertainment lol.
