New Providence Memorial Library is proud to offer these ebook services that are free with your NP Library card:
Overdrive
If you haven't used Libby since Nov. 2023 or earlier, you'll need to add your library card to Libby again.
You can access Overdrive e-books in one of two ways:
- Through mainlib.overdrive.com if you want to send an ebook to a Kindle, or read an ebook in your browser
- Through the Libby by Overdrive app on iPhones, iPads, Android devices and Kindle Fire tablets.
Log in with your library card barcode number and PIN.
Some Overdrive e-books have waitlists. There is a limit of 10 loans and 5 holds at a time.
