News Update! Move to OverDrive from RBdigital
Over the next few weeks, our eMagazines collection will be moving from RBdigital to OverDrive.
OverDrive is the leading digital reading platform for libraries worldwide where you can continue to borrow, read and enjoy the same great magazines and more – anytime, anywhere in the one-tap reading app called Libby or your web browser.
This will mean to access our eMagazines in future you will need to log in to a different app, Libby, or through your web browser using your library card number and PIN/Password.
More information to follow, including the changeover date and what it means for you.
In the meantime, you can still use RBdigital to read your favourite eMagazines!
Note: Borrowbox, eAudiobooks and PressReader eNewspapers/eMagazines are not affected by this change.
