OverDrive/Libby Update

Feature Heading

As of Nov 1 the OverDrive/Libby service has been suspended.

The BHPL has been working with OverDrive to come up with a solution to resolve this issue, but we do not currently know when the service will be restored.

In the meantime, we suggest you try Hoopla as an alternative for e-books, audio books and more. Hoopla is available for Benton Harbor City residents, Benton Charter Township residents, and pay card holders. If you have questions, please contact the Director Kat Boyer.
