Starting October 15, your Libby/Overdrive account will require a 4-digit PIN to log in. Overdrive is making this update to enhance security.
➡ Key things to know:
- Your Libby PIN is the same as your library card PIN.
- Your PIN is most likely the last four digits of your phone number.
- If you don't know your PIN, library staff can help you reset it.
