- Libby is the mobile app to access the OverDrive collection of eMagazines titles available to Western Australian Public Libraries. You can access over 3,000 current digital magazines with back issues (where available).
- There are no magazine checkout limits, so you can borrow as many as you like.
- There is also a ‘notify me’ function so you never miss an issue – just like having subscription but without the cost (and without piles of magazines taking up valuable storage space!).
For example: this is what it would cost to subscribe to the print edition of these popular magazines:
- Australian Women’s Weekly subscription $84.99 (12 monthly issues)
- The Economist $665 (52 weekly issues)
- New Idea $159.99 per year (52 weekly issues)
- Better homes and gardens $34.99 (6 monthly issues)
- Money magazine $84.99 (11 monthly issues)
Access the OverDrive website from your PC or Mac, or if using a mobile or tablet, download the Libby App
All you need is your library card number, and you can borrow unlimited magazine titles for a period of up to 21 days (although you can renew them if you need more reading time).
