Libby is now available to download from the Amazon Appstore. Going forward, users with Amazon Fire tablets should download Libby directly from the Amazon Appstore instead of manually sideloading the app, as was previously necessary.

When searching a library in Libby, you may discover titles that aren’t in the collection. These titles will have a Notify Me button (instead of Borrow or Place Hold). Selecting Notify Me sets up a smart tag in Libby that will alert you if the library purchases the book at a later date. See how Notify Me works in the app or watch an instructional video.
