This year a new Over Drive site and the Libby app will be the primary tools for you to access eBooks, eAudio, eMagazines and streaming video from your library.

Library e Materials currently on other platforms, including RBdigital and cloudLibrary, are moving to the new site in stages over the next few months.

New OverDrive site - February/March 2021

If you access OverDrive via your web browser, you will notice a new OverDrive webpage for all Twin Cities metro library users.

If you use Libby, you won’t see any change except there will be more titles available for you to borrow.

RBdigital Magazines

On February 1, RBdigital Magazines will no longer be available.

eMagazines will be available to check out on the new OverDrive site. Learn more about the transition from RBdigital to OverDrive.

cloudLibrary

In mid-February, cloudLibrary will no longer be available for eBooks and eAudio.

If you use cloudLibrary, your borrowing history and holds will go away with the platform. You are encouraged to go to OverDrive and place holds on any titles still on hold in your cloudLibrary account.

If you have questions about these changes, Ask Us.
