Our App today is called Libby. Not everyone can get out to the public library for whatever reason, but you can bring the library to you with this app. This is a virtual library card for your local branch.

You can use it to look through an entire catalog of books that the library has on digital. You can borrow them, just like you would when you show up. Then, you can read the books through your e-reader. There are audiobooks and magazines available, too. Come up with reading lists.

When you're reading the books, you can save your place and come back right where you left off. There are books for kids that you can read together. Libby has all you could ever want from a library without leaving the house. It works with your library card in your city. It's a free app on iTunes and Android.
