Do you use Libby? Starting Monday, October 12, you'll need to use both your library card number and PIN to log in. This will be the same PIN you use to log into LINKcat.


You’ll be asked to verify your library card number and PIN. This may happen when you open Libby, check out an item, or place a hold. Have your library card number and PIN handy.


Forgot your pin? Instructions for resetting your PIN can be found in LINKcat Help, or reach out to the library for help.


This update is part of Libby’s efforts to enhance account security. We understand that changes to familiar services can feel frustrating, and we appreciate your patience as we make this security update.
