What is Libby? 

Libby is a library platform you can use to discover, borrow, and request ebooks and audiobooks. Libby can be accessed through the web or as an app on your mobile device. 

What’s available on Libby? 

Libby has ebooks and audiobooks for many different titles. The Chicago School Library purchases some required readings on Libby when possible, so you may find an ebook or audiobook version of your textbook on Libby. You can also find outside reading on Libby across multiple genres. 

Some books that are currently available through The Chicago School’s Libby subscription are: 

  • The New Jim Crow by Michelle Alexander 

  • In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts by Gabor Maté 

  • The Inner Work of Racial Justice by Rhonda V. Magee 

  • What My Bones Know: A Memoir of Healing from Complex Trauma by Stephanie Foo 

What if I already have Libby through another library? 

You can have as many Libby accounts as you have library memberships. We recommend registering with your local library to view their Libby offerings as well!
