OK, so this is embarrassing…I’ve never used my library’s Libby app to read library books on my Kindle. So my New Year’s Resolution (well, one of them) was to figure out how Libby works and see if I could save some bucks. I was especially worried because some of us are checking off some of the books on the 1,000 Books to Read Before You Die list*** and I was thinking I’d have to buy these titles. Since they’re all older (the book came out in 2018) I figured there was a good chance I could get them at the library - but I can only read ebooks because of arthritis.
Well…I can’t believe how easy it was to download to my Kindle. Amazon apparently works with libraries to handle the checkout process. You click your book on the library site, it takes you to Amazon, & you tell it to Send to Kindle. Wow.
