Partner Libraries in Libby

Did you know RHPL has partnerships with other libraries across Michigan, which let you borrow digital titles from a partner library using your RHPL card?

Partner Libraries are currently:

• Bay County Library System

• Download Destination

• Genesee District Library

• Great Lakes Digital Libraries

• Lakeland Digital Library

• Mideastern Michigan Library Cooperative

• Midwest Collaborative for Library Services

• Southwest Michigan Digital Library

• St. Clair County Library System

• Suburban Library Cooperative

• Traverse Area District Library

• Up North Digital Collection

• White Pine Library Cooperative

• Woodlands Downloadable Library

  
  

To add your card for a partner library in the Libby app or at libbyapp.com:

1. Go to Menu  > Add Library.

2. Search for the partner library and open it.

3. Tap Sign In With My Card.

4. Under Partner Libraries, look for “MNLC - Rochester Hills Public Library” in the list and sign in with your RHPL account.

Repeat those 4 steps for each partner library you’d like to add. 

After you’ve added partner libraries, your searches in Libby will automatically include the collections of all of those libraries, and Libby will show you the shortest wait time from all the libraries you can access.

Note: Some partner libraries may place limits on visiting library cards. For example, when you visit a partner library, you may have a lower checkout limit, lower priority for holds, or the inability to place holds.
