* Kindle Trouble-shooting tips

Kindle Fire Users

  • To download Library apps, you must go to your Kindle Settings and Allow Installation of Applications from Unknown Sources.
  • If your device is not compatible with the Overdrive app (which is no longer supported), try to side load the Libby app.
  • If neither app works, go to libbyapp.com on your device browser as a workaround.
