Checking if a title's available at multiple libraries
If you've added multiple libraries in Libby, you can easily see which of your saved libraries has the best availability for a title.
If a title is available to borrow at your active library, you'll see the option to borrow from them. Otherwise, you'll see the option to borrow the title at one of your other saved libraries or place a hold at the saved library with the shortest wait list.
When you're browsing or searching, you can tap or
to manually check a title's availability across your saved libraries. Tap
or
next to a library in this list to borrow or place a hold on the title at that library.
You can also check a title's availability across your saved libraries as you're borrowing it or placing it on hold. Here's how:
- Tap Borrow or Place Hold.
- On the confirmation screen, tap the library name.
- Select a different library in this list if you'd prefer to borrow or place a hold on the title from their collection instead.
- Tap Borrow or Place Hold.
Once you finish borrowing or placing a hold, select Keep Browsing to return to the collection you were previously viewing.
