Digital Magazines in Libby/Overdrive
Enjoy reading magazines? We’ve got many available in print, including back issues to check out — but did you know you can access magazines digitally as well?
New for 2020, we have integrated the bulk of our digital magazine collection into Overdrive. Now you can enjoy dozens of magazines right in the same app you may already enjoy using to read books and listen to audiobooks.
Some of our most popular digital magazines are not available in Overdrive, however, so if you’ve enjoyed reading the digital edition of the New Yorker or People, for example, you can still find a small collection of very popular titles via the Flipster app.
Need help getting started with digital magazines? Stop by the Information Desk for assistance or call 518-810-0314.
